Enjoy a beautiful BBQ for two with this sumptuous centrepiece

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tbsp soft light brown sugar
juice and zest 1 lemon
125ml olive oil
8 tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 garlic cloves , crushed
4 tbsp chopped mint
half boneless leg of lamb , about 400g/14oz

Steps:

  • Make the marinade: mix the sugar, lemon juice and zest with the olive oil, balsamic and some seasoning. Stir to dissolve the sugar then mix in the garlic and mint. Reserve half of the marinade to use as a dressing for the lamb later.
  • Open out the meat and lay it in a deep tray. Pour the marinade on top then turn to coat all over in the mix. Cover with cling film and leave for 1 hr or overnight in the fridge.
  • Remove the lamb from the fridge and shake off any excess marinade back into the tray. Insert a skewer so that it goes from one corner to the opposite one. Do the same with another skewer in the opposite direction - this makes it really easy to turn the meat on the barbecue.
  • Heat a barbecue or griddle pan until it's a medium heat. Cook the lamb for 15-20 mins, turning frequently for pink lamb or longer if you prefer it more done. When cooked, rest for 5-10 mins before taking out the skewers, slicing and serving with the reserved marinade for pouring over.

GRILLED LEG OF LAMB WITH GARLIC AND HERB LEMON MARINADE



Grilled Leg of Lamb With Garlic and Herb Lemon Marinade image

This is really the only recipe I use when I grill a leg of lamb. Plan ahead, the lamb needs to marinate 24 hours or overnight. This marinade can also be used for lamb chops. A butterflied leg of lamb is with the bones removed and cut to spread open, you can ask your butcher to remove the bones and butterfly it for you. If you prefer a more lemony taste then thinly slice half of another lemon, leave the peel on, and just throw the slices inside the bag or bowl with along with the other marinade. If desired you can also stuff the lamb with garlic cloves as well as adding the minced garlic in with the marinade. Grilling time depends on size of lamb. This recipe produces an excellent grilled lamb that melts in your mouth, try to not overcook the lamb, for best results leave slightly pink in the middle.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of lamb: A good choice for grilling is a leg of lamb, which is a lean and tender cut. You can also use lamb chops, which are smaller and cook more quickly.
  • Marinate the lamb: Marinating the lamb will help to tenderize it and add flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, such as a simple mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs, or a more complex marinade with yogurt, spices, and honey.
  • Grill the lamb over medium-high heat: This will help to sear the outside of the lamb and prevent it from drying out. Cook the lamb until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, or 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
  • Let the lamb rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve the lamb with a variety of sides: Grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a simple salad are all good choices.

Conclusion:

Grilled marinated lamb is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. By following these tips, you can ensure that your lamb is cooked to perfection and full of flavor. So fire up your grill and get cooking!
