Grilled Butterflied Leg of Lamb
- 4 pounds leg of lamb butterflied (approx)
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 cloves garlic chopped
- 1 cup olive oil
- 2 large lemons juiced
- 13 cup tomato paste
- 2 teaspoons rosemary leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper coarsely ground
- 1/2 teaspoon marjoram
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon savory
- Have the butcher butterfly the leg of lamb, or do it yourself.
- Combine all remaining ingredients in a glass, enamel, stainless steel, or plastic container and beat with a whisk or fork until combined.
- It takes a few minutes.
- Add the lamb, turning it to make sure it is coated on all sides.
- Marinate two hours at room temperature, or overnight in the refrigerator.
- Check occasionally to make sure that it is still coated with the marinade and re-cover as necessary.
- Grill outside, or broil inside at about 8 inches from the flame for 15 minutes on each side, brushing occasionally with the marinade.
- Serve sliced thin (hot) with the rest of the marinade, heated.
- NOTE: This also makes wonderful sandwiches if there are any leftovers.
- Precision: approximate measurements are okay.
