This butterflied leg of lamb recipe is fantastic as a summer Sunday lunch or dinner. The fresh and flavorsome marinade is a perfect accompaniment to the lamb.
This recipe is written for cooking in and on a conventional oven or on a BBQ. Cooking over the open fire is no different in terms of timings for the lamb. But definitely adds that extra tasty smoky taste.
