EASY BONELESS HONEY MARINATED BUTTERFLIED LEG OF LAMB
Try this on the grill, it's awesome! (heat the grill to high, sear the lamb for about 5 minutes on all sides, reduce the grill heat to medium and cook for about 30 minutes for med-rare). Plan ahead the lamb needs to marinade for 24 hours. Since the lamb is butterflied you will need a large baking pan to cook in the oven, to save time as your butcher to butterfly it for you.

Steps:
- Combine the mint, wine, lemon juice, and honey in a mixing bowl. Add the lamb and onions, and toss to mix. Cover, and refrigerate 4 hours to overnight.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil grate.
- Strain the marinade from the lamb into a small saucepan; set aside. Thread the lamb and onions onto the skewers, using 3 onions per skewer. Cook the skewers on the preheated grill until the lamb has cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 8 minutes for medium-well.
- Meanwhile, bring the reserved marinade to a simmer over medium heat. Whisk in the apricot preserves until dissolved, then reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer gently for 5 minutes, adding water if needed to keep the sauce from burning. Dissolve the cornstarch in 1 tablespoon of water, and whisk into the sauce to thicken; simmer the sauce 30 seconds longer. Serve with the lamb skewers.

Tips and Conclusion
To ensure juicy and flavorful marinated brochettes of lamb with honey, follow these essential tips:
- Select high-quality lamb: Opt for fresh, tender cuts of lamb, such as leg of lamb or lamb chops. Look for meat that is bright red in color and has minimal marbling.
- Prepare a flavorful marinade: Combine aromatic ingredients like garlic, rosemary, thyme, and olive oil to create a marinade that infuses the lamb with delicious flavors. Honey adds a touch of sweetness and helps tenderize the meat.
- Marinate the lamb properly: Allow the lamb to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This allows the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the meat, resulting in a more flavorful dish.
- Skewer the lamb carefully: Use sturdy skewers to prevent the lamb from falling off during grilling. Thread the lamb pieces onto the skewers, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Grill the lamb to perfection: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and cook the lamb brochettes for 8-10 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F for medium-rare.
- Rest the lamb before serving: Once the lamb is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and succulent dish.
In conclusion, marinated brochettes of lamb with honey are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or as an appetizer. With its tender lamb, flavorful marinade, and sweet honey glaze, this recipe is sure to impress your friends and family. Experiment with different marinade variations, grilling techniques, and accompaniments to create a truly memorable meal. Happy grilling!
