MUSTARD-GLAZED BUTTERFLIED LEG OF LAMB
Though I have not tried this myself, the picture in the book looked delicious. It can be grilled or broiled. This looked like a healthy alternative to other preparations I've seen. From a cookbook entitled The Ultimate Cooking Course, 2003.

BUTTERMILK-MARINATED LAMB WITH MUSTARD SEEDS AND SAVORY
This recipe comes from Diane St. Clair, a dairy farmer in Vermont. It uses a buttermilk marinade both to flavor the meat and to tenderize it slightly. A wet rub of mustard and savory gets slathered onto the meat before it's roasted: divine.

Steps:
- In a large deep bowl or a large sealable plastic bag, combine buttermilk, garlic and 1 teaspoon salt. Add lamb, turn to coat, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours or up to 24 hours, turning occasionally.
- Heat oven to 325 and remove lamb from refrigerator. In a small bowl, combine mustard and savory. Remove lamb from marinade and pat dry; discard marinade. Season lamb well with salt and pepper and slather with mustard mixture. Place on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast for about 1 1/2 hours, until the internal temperature registers about 155 on a meat thermometer (for medium). For the last 15 minutes of cooking, raise heat to 400 or turn on convection (or both) to brown the outside of the meat.
- Remove from oven, cover lightly with foil and set aside to rest at least 15 minutes before slicing.
