Marinaded lamb

Lamb done right can be a really tasty meal.  Here is a marinade with a bit of a Mediterranean flavor.

Ingredients:
  • Lamb, your choice of cut.
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 lemon
  • fresh ground pepper
  • 2 tsp oregano
  • 1 clove garlic chopped
Directions:
  1. Make the marinade.  Use a zester to get about 1 tbsp lemon zest.  Squeeze the lemon for all its juice.  Add the garlic, oregano and a liberal amount of fresh ground pepper to the marinade.  Put the lamb in a bag or bowl and cover.  Let sit for 1-4 hours.
  2. Start your charcoal and set up the grill for direct heat.
  3. Put lamb on grill over direct heat for about 3 minutes a side.  This will cook it about rare to medium rare.
