Grilled Leg of Lamb with Garlic and Rosemary

• One 4- to 5-pound boneless leg of lamb, not butterflied
• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 8 large garlic cloves, smashed and coarsely chopped
• 2 tablespoons minced rosemary
• Salt and freshly ground pepper

1. Spread the lamb on a work surface.
2. With a boning or paring knife, cut between the muscles and separate them using your fingers.
3. Trim away any excess fat and gristle.
4. In a large, shallow dish, combine the olive oil, garlic and rosemary.
5. Add the lamb and turn to coat.
6. Let marinate at room temperature for 4 hours, turning a few times.
7. Light a grill.
8. Season the lamb with salt and pepper; do not scrape off the garlic or rosemary.
9. Grill the lamb over a hot fire, turning often, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in each piece registers 125 to 130 for medium-rare.
10. The times will vary according to the size and shape of the lamb leg, anywhere from 8 minutes for a 6-ounce piece to 20 minutes for a 1 1/2-pound piece.
11. Transfer the lamb to a carving board as each one is done, cover loosely with foil and let rest for 15 minutes.
12. Thinly slice the lamb and serve.
