Here’s a delicious recipe for lamb meat cooked in the oven:

Ingredients:

2 pounds lamb shoulder or leg, bone-in
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
1 onion, sliced
1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
Fresh herbs for garnish (optional)
Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a small bowl, mix together the minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.

Rub the lamb meat all over with the marinade, making sure to coat it evenly. You can also make small incisions in the meat and insert slivers of garlic for extra flavor.

Place the sliced onion in the bottom of a roasting pan or baking dish. This will help elevate the lamb and prevent it from sticking to the pan.

Place the marinated lamb on top of the onions in the roasting pan.

Pour the chicken or vegetable broth into the pan around the lamb. This will keep the meat moist and flavorful as it cooks.

Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil or a lid and place it in the preheated oven.

Roast the lamb for about 2 to 2 1/2 hours, or until the meat is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork. For a crispy exterior, you can remove the foil or lid during the last 30 minutes of cooking.

Once cooked, remove the lamb from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or rosemary if desired, and serve the succulent roasted lamb with your favorite side dishes such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a Greek salad.

Enjoy this tender and flavorful lamb meat cooked in the oven for a delightful meal!
