Mint-Pesto Rubbed Leg of Lamb
By: eatingwell.com
About 12 servings
Active Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 2 hours
Ingredients
-1/2 cup packed fresh basil leaves
-1/4 cup packed fresh mint leaves
-1/4 cup packed fresh parsley leaves
-2 tablespoons toasted pine nuts, (see Tip)
-2 tablespoons grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
-2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
-1 clove garlic, peeled
-1 teaspoon salt, divided
-1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
-1 3 1/2-pound boneless leg of lamb, butterflied (see Tip) and trimmed
Preparation
1.Preheat oven to 350°F.
2.Place basil, mint, parsley, pine nuts, cheese, oil, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper in a food processor and process until fairly smooth. Sprinkle lamb all over with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the pesto; spread the rest over the top side of the lamb and roll it closed. (It will not be a perfect cylinder.) Tie kitchen string around the roast in five places; do not tie too tightly or the pesto will squeeze out. Rub the reserved pesto over the outside of the lamb and place in a roasting pan.
3.Roast the lamb until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 140°F for medium-rare, about 1 hour 20 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board; let rest for 10 minutes. Carve the lamb, leaving the string in place to help hold the roast together

Btw, llulko, you can be such a buzz-kill sometimes. LOL. jk. D_unit asked about Easter recipes, and I immediately went back to all my favorite pig-out memories as a kid, and then you go following it with all those healthy recipes and make me feel bad. Sheesh. (Those were really good recipe ideas though. just bustin’ your chops.)
yeah, i pretty much can’t stand any chocolate with less than 60% cocoa in it now, and usually roll with something containing around 85%. it has completely ruined candy for me but i’m cool with it. i have a piece with a glass of red wine most nights.
HAHA.. R_Crass.. I know I can be a buzz kill. I am a buzz kill all over this site.
During Easter I am sure you want to eat those chocolate bunnies, jelly beans, sugar sticks, peeps, pastel M&M’s, sugar coated almonds, and cadbury eggs. However, I was trying to make you salivate on other healthy dishes instead =) ……… I know… your welcome…. I know
As for chocolate, I love ALLL chocolate, although I prefer dark 60-80% coco as well… I prefer the strong rich taste of dark chocolate over processed milk chocolate!! I wonder if it is because my taste buds changed and prefer the natural state of foods… who knows…
AND oh yes!! Paired with a glass of wine… nothing beats that… I love dark chocolate truffles from lint yum!!!
