Bursting with fresh fragrant Mediterranean flavours, any cut of lamb can be elevated from wonderful to sensationally sublime with this easy and delicious Greek-style marinade using fresh garden herbs, Dijon mustard, olive oil, paprika, salt, pepper, and the zest and juice of one large lemon. Poured over and gently massaged into a bone-in or boneless garlic-studded leg of lamb, the marinade should be be allowed to work its culinary magic by covering and refrigerating the lamb for at least six hours, or even overnight if possible. Roasted in the oven at 425°F for 20 minutes then reduced to 350°F for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, the lamb smells heavenly as it slowly roasts in the luscious marinade, producing a wonderfully tender and fabulously flavourful Aegean-inspired Leg of Lamb — it's a 'keeper'.

Remove from the refrigerator an hour before cooking. Place the lamb on a rack in a roasting pan, top with the marinade and pour enough water into the pan without touching the lamb. Roast in a preheated 425°F oven for 20 minutes, then reduce the heat to 350°F and roast until tender enough to pull from the bone, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours, adding more water if needed. Remove the lamb to a platter, cover and allow it to rest for at least 15 minutes before carving.

Full of flavour and great value for money, forequarter chops were once the BBQ chop of choice. They come from the shoulder of lamb, which means they are on the bone. And remember that old expression, ‘closer to the bone, the sweeter the meat’. These are great chops for using in slow braise for making that classic Northern English dish, the Lancashire Hotpot. But when marinated properly and grilled just right, they make a great BBQ dish. The Greeks know the secret of basting the chops in lemon juice and white wine overnight, slowly taken on the fragrance of herbs and garlic. The other secret is to not overcook the chops and make sure they are properly rested. Serve with a big fat Greek salad, some tzatziki, and loads of crusty bread to mop up those aromatic pan juices.
