Instructions

Combine all of the ingredients for the rub in a bullet of a food processor and process.
Score the fat part of the lamb, about a 1/4-inch deep, and rub the mixture all over the lamb.
Preheat Oven to 350 degrees F.
Place the lamb in the oven for about 20 minutes per pound timing. Time the cooking time a little less, such as 18 minutes per pound for a less well-done lamb.
Let the cooked lamb rest for about 15 minutes before slicing.
