Yield Eight servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 cup red wine
1 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup olive oil
5 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon dried rosemary, or 2 tablespoons to 1/4 cup fresh rosemary, snipped, plus sprigs for garnish
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 butterflied leg of lamb, 4 to 5 pounds

Steps:

Combine the wine, soy sauce, oil, garlic and herbs and pour over the lamb in a shallow glass or enamel pan (aluminum will react with acidity in the wine and affect the taste). Refrigerate, covered, for 6 hours, turning the lamb occasionally.
Prepare coals for grilling. Drain the lamb and reserve the marinade. Place the lamb on the grill 4 inches above the coals. Grill 15 minutes per side for rare, or 20 for medium, basting frequently with the marinade. Slice thinly and arrange on a large platter garnished with sprigs of fresh rosemary.
