Ingredients

• 4 pounds boneless leg of lamb
• 1 tablespoon kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
• 2 lemon, zested and juiced
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 0.5 cup dry white wine
• 1 yellow onion, sliced
• 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
• 4 carrots, cut into large pieces

Directions

Step 1

Pat the lamb dry with paper towels and season it all over with kosher salt and black pepper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, lemon zest, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil to make a paste.

Step 3

Rub the paste evenly over the surface of the lamb, ensuring all sides are well coated.

Step 4

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the lamb on all sides until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side. Remove the lamb from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, deglaze with the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let the wine reduce slightly, about 2 minutes, then remove from heat.

Step 6

Place the sliced onion, baby potatoes, and carrots in the bottom of your crock pot. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

Step 7

Lay the seared lamb on top of the vegetables. Add the chicken broth, lemon juice, and the deglazed wine from the skillet to the crock pot.

Step 8

Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on low for 8 hours, or until the lamb is tender and easily pulled apart with a fork.

Step 9

Once cooking is complete, transfer the lamb to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing or shredding.

Step 10

Serve the lamb alongside the cooked vegetables, drizzled with the flavorful juices from the bottom of the crock pot. Garnish with additional fresh rosemary or lemon wedges, if desired.
