LAVENDER RUB



Lavender Rub image

My Mom clipped this recipe out of the local newspaper. A multi-purpose herb/spice rub for meats-chicken, lamb, even fish; vegetables such as corn on the cob, baked potato, etc. Use your imagination but use sparingly! Update: This is wonderful on simple roasted whole chicken!

Categories     Lamb     Broil     Easter     Quick & Easy     Healthy

Yield 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 - 6 lb. boneless leg of lamb, fat trimmed and butterflied
3-4 cloves of garlic, sliced thinly
2 Tbsp. fresh or dry Lavender flowers
3 Tbsp. fresh rosemary, chopped
2 Tbsp. fresh mint, chopped
3 Tbsp. olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
several sprigs fresh lavender for garnish

Steps:

  • Make 20 small incisions in the lamb in various places and tuck a slice of garlic into each incision. In a bowl combine the lavender, rosemary, mint, and olive oil. Rub the mixture over the lamb and refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours. Preheat an outdoor grill or the broiler unit of your range. If you are using the outdoor grill, place the lamb on the grill 4 inches from the coals. If you are using the broiler, place the lamb in a 7 Qt. sauteuse and place the pan 4 inches from the broiler element. Broil or grill until the first side has reached a rich, caramelized color, about 15 minutes. Turn the lamb and continue to cook until a meat thermometer reads 130°F-135°F or medium rare. Cover w/ foil and let rest for 15 minutes. Slice the lamb across the grain, place on a warm platter, garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs and serve.
