Ingredients
- 1 whole lamb breast, approximately 2 pounds
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lemon, zest only
- 1/4 cup chicken stock
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, parsley, olive oil, salt, pepper, oregano, thyme, minced garlic, and lemon zest. Mix well to create the stuffing mixture.
- Lay the lamb breast flat on a clean surface with the fat side down. Spread the stuffing mixture evenly over the meat, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Carefully roll the lamb breast tightly, starting from one end, and secure it with kitchen twine at 2-inch intervals.
- Place the rolled lamb in a roasting pan, seam side down. Pour the chicken stock into the pan to help keep the meat moist during cooking.
- Roast the lamb in the preheated oven for about 2 hours, or until the meat is tender and the skin is nicely browned. Baste occasionally with the pan juices.
- Remove the lamb from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This helps the juices to redistribute, keeping the meat moist.
- Slice the lamb into serving portions and enjoy your delicious Stuffed Lamb Breast with your favorite side dishes.
