Rotisserie Boneless Leg of Lamb

Rotisserie boneless leg of lamb is a delicious and easy to prepare dish that can be enjoyed year-round, but is extra satisfying served for Easter dinner.

This Easter you may default to a beef tenderloin, perhaps a roast turkey, or even a glazed ham. Maybe it is a traditional family favourite or possibly it is within your comfort level to prepare, and you do not want to take a risk during a holiday gathering. But, I want to assure you that it is difficult to top a tender, rotisserie leg of lamb for any occasion. Not only is it delicious, but a boneless leg of lamb is much easier to carve than a turkey, more economical than a tenderloin and has a shorter cooking time than most hams. Plus, it makes an impressive presentation with the blushing meat served alongside you favourite vegetables and potatoes roasted in the lamb drippings

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 1 boneless leg of lamb 4-5 lbs, trimmed of excess fat, untied for marinating

Marinade

• ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
• 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons garlic minced (5 to 7 cloves)
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest

For serving

• Grilled lemons
• Maldon Salt

Instructions

 

• In a baking dish, whisk together all of the marinade ingredients.
• Place lamb directly into the marinade and toss thoroughly to coat.
• Marinade at room temperature for 1 hour.
• Using the rotisserie burner on high, preheat the grill to 425°F (If you are using burners under the lamb, be sure to place a drip tray under the lamb to catch the drippings and avoid flare ups. Ideally, use a griddle pan to prepare roasted potatoes, in the lamb drippings!)
• Remove the lamb from marinade, roll into a uniformed cylinder and tie tightly with butcher’s twine.
• Slide the spit of the rotisserie through the middle of the lamb and secure with rotisserie forks on both ends.
• Place the spit on the grill and start the rotisserie motor. Close the lid, turn down the rotisserie burner to medium-high and cook for 10 minutes.
• Lower with the rotisserie burner to medium temperature (the ambient grill temperature should be about 350°F). Cook until lamb registers 125°F for medium-rare or 130°F for medium on an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the roast. Approximately 45 minutes to 60 minutes.
• Remove to a cutting board and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes. The temperature of lamb will continue to rise slightly while resting.
• Slice and serve with grilled lemons and Maldon salt for finishing.
