Ingredients

  1. 1 boneless leg of lamb
  2. 16 oz. goat cheese
  3. 2 Tbsp. chopped garlic
  4. 1/4 cup fresh rosemary
  5. 1/4 cup fresh parsley
  6. 1 cup Ocean Spray® Craisins®

  8. 2 tsp. salt
  9. 2 tsp. pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Remove netting from lamb and place on cutting board. Open the meat up and season with salt and pepper. In a mixing bowl, combine the goat cheese, garlic, parsley, rosemary and Craisins®. Place the goat cheese mixture in the middle of the lamb opening and fold side layer on top of lamb. Cut 12 pieces of twine and tie lamb so goat cheese mixture is intact. Season the outer layer of lamb with salt and pepper. Cook lamb at 450°F for 20 minutes. Turn oven down to 400°F and cook for another 55 minutes. Take out of the oven and let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.

This was absolutely fantastic. A wonderful change. I cut a boneless leg of lamb in half for 2 of us and adjusted the recipe accordingly. I will DEFINITELY be making this again.
