Ingredients:
For the Mutton Leg:

- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1/4 cup olive oil

For the Herb Crust:

Instructions:
For Preparing the Mutton Leg:
- In a bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped fresh rosemary, fresh thyme leaves, lemon zest, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
- Rub the boneless mutton leg with the marinade mixture, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight for maximum flavor.
For the Herb Crust:
- In a separate bowl, combine fresh breadcrumbs, chopped fresh parsley, mint, rosemary, and olive oil. Mix well to create the herb crust.
Roasting the Mutton Leg:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Place the marinated boneless pasture-fed mutton leg in a roasting pan.
- Generously coat the mutton leg with the prepared herb crust, pressing it onto the meat to create an even layer.
- Roast the mutton leg in the preheated oven for approximately 45-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches your desired level of doneness (135°F/57°C for medium-rare).
- Remove the boneless pasture-fed mutton leg from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Slice the roasted mutton leg into individual portions and serve with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
