Lamb leg baked in foil
Description
The recipe won't take much time. A leg of lamb baked in foil at home takes no more than 2 hours. If desired, you can add lemon juice to the marinade, but the oil and spices will perfectly infuse the lamb on their own. Another important point—don't skimp on the foil, so the meat cooks thoroughly in the marinade and its own juices. Lamb prepared this way turns out juicy and tender, dispelling the myths about this cut being tough. Serve hot.
