Preparation

Step 1

Cut 5 slits in the meat; insert garlic. Combine salt, thyme and garlic powder; rub over meat. Place on a rack in a roasting pan. Broil 5 to 6 inches from the heat until browned; turn and brown the other side.
Turn oven to 350 degrees. Add 1/2 cup water to pan. Cover and bake 25 minutes per pound or until internal temperature reaches 160 degrees for medium or 170 degrees for well-done. Remove to carving board and keep warm. Pour pan drippings into a large measuring cup, scraping brown bits. Skim fat; reserving 1/4 cup in a saucepan; add flour. Add water to drippings to equal 2 cups; add all at once to flour mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir 1-2 minutes more. Slice lamb and serve with gravy.
