   Marinate and Roast Lamb

   Place the lamb leg and all remaining ingredients—garlic, parsley, onion, black pepper, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, mint, and salt—into your roaster pan. Marinate the lamb for at least two days, stirring occasionally to ensure the marinade distributes evenly over the meat.

   When you're ready to cook, preheat your oven to 350°F. Bake the lamb for 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours, or until a slice into the thickest part shows no red meat.

   Skewer or Freeze

   If you wish, you can cut the marinated lamb into chunks and thread them onto skewers, perhaps with other vegetables, to grill instead of roasting the whole leg. Any cooked leftovers, or the entire roasted lamb, freezes well for later.
