Ingredients | Leg Of Lamb With Mint Jelly

1 (6 pound) leg of lamb, at room temperature

¼ cup butter, softened

6 cloves garlic, halved

4 sprigs fresh rosemary, chopped

½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 (6 ounce) can frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed

1 (1 ounce) package dry onion and mushroom soup mix

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Spread butter generously over the lamb, and distribute garlic clove halves over the meat. Sprinkle with rosemary and pepper. Place the lamb on a rack inside a roasting pan.

Roast the lamb in the preheated oven for 1 hour.

Mix the lemonade concentrate and dry soup mix together in a bowl, pour over the lamb, and roast an additional 30 minutes. A meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the lamb should read 120 degrees F/58 degrees C for medium-rare or 145 degrees F/68 degrees C for medium-well. Allow the roast to stand for about 20 minutes before slicing.
