1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a small bowl,
combine all ingredients except lamb and garlic.
2. Place lamb, fat side up, on a rack in a shallow
roasting pan. With a small sharp knife, cut twelve
1/2 inch long by 2 inch deep slits, 2-3 inches
apart, in the top of the lamb. Insert garlic
slivers into each slit, pushing them into the
meat.
3. Spread herb mixture evenly over lamb. Roast,
uncovered, for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350
degrees and continue roasting, uncovered, until
the temperature reaches 145 degrees for medium
rare, or 160 degrees for medium.
4. Remove from the oven and let stand for 15-20
minutes before carving.
