Preparation
Step 1
In a small bowl combine the olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, oregano, salt, and red pepper. Rub the lamb with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate overnight, or at least 8 hours. When you are ready to cook your lamb, remove it from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for an hour. Place the lamb into a large roasting pan. Roast the lamb in a preheated 350° F oven for one hour and twenty minutes, or until the internal temperature measures at least 145 to 150° F for medium rare. If you like your lamb more done, roast until temperature is 160° F. Let the roast sit for 20 to 30 minutes before you slice it, so the juices have time to reabsorb.
