Grilled Butterflied Leg of Lamb with Lemon, Herbs, and GarlicGourmet's studios

This recipe can be prepared in 45 minutes or less but requires additional sitting time.

Butterflied leg of lamb can sometimes get a little unwieldy. To secure loose flaps of meat, run 2 long metal skewers lengthwise and 2 skewers crosswise through the lamb, bunching the meat together. Securing the lamb this way will also help it cook more evenly.
