Ingredients

  • 1 piece (approximately 4 lbs) leg of lamb
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes
  • 1 can (14 oz) artichoke hearts, quartered
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 medium red onion, sliced

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Pat the leg of lamb dry with paper towels and place it in a large roasting pan.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped rosemary, thyme, salt, and black pepper to form a marinade.

Step 4

Rub the marinade all over the lamb, ensuring it is evenly coated. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.

Step 5

Arrange the cherry tomatoes, quartered artichoke hearts, and sliced red onion around the lamb in the roasting pan.

Step 6

Pour the white wine and chicken or vegetable broth into the pan, ensuring the liquids are evenly distributed.

Step 7

Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Roast for 1 1/2 hours.

Step 8

Remove the foil and roast for an additional 30 minutes, or until the lamb reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare.

Step 9

Once cooked, remove the lamb from the oven and let it rest, covered loosely with foil, for 10 minutes before slicing.

Step 10

Serve the lamb slices with the roasted tomatoes, artichoke hearts, and pan juices spooned over the top. Enjoy!
