Delicious Crown Roast of Lamb Recipe - Italian Main Course

Ingredients

Servings:
6
  • 1 crown roast of lamb
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup white wine (for deglazing)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Lamb

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Season the crown roast with salt and pepper.

    Let the lamb sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before roasting.
  2. Mix the Filling

    In a bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, bread crumbs, and Parmesan cheese.

    Ensure the mixture is well combined and evenly distributed.
  3. Stuff the Crown Roast

    Carefully stuff the mixture into the center of the crown roast.

    Pack it tightly to ensure it stays in place during cooking.
  4. Drizzle with Olive Oil

    Drizzle olive oil over the crown roast and rub it into the meat.

    This helps to keep the meat moist and enhances flavor.
  5. Roast the Lamb

    Place the crown roast in the oven and roast for approximately 1.5 to 2 hours.

    Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness; aim for 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare.
