Gluten Free Greek Roast Lamb with Lemon and Herbs

Few centerpiece roasts feel as celebratory as a slow-cooked leg of lamb perfumed with garlic, lemon, and a generous handful of fresh herbs. Every ingredient here is naturally free of gluten, so there's no need to audit labels or swap anything out — the dish simply works as written. Garlic slivers are pressed deep into the meat before a fragrant paste of olive oil, lemon zest, oregano, rosemary, thyme, turmeric, and ginger is rubbed into every crevice, then the whole thing rests overnight so those flavors have time to sink in. A long, foil-covered braise in bone broth keeps the meat impossibly tender, while a final blast of high heat caramelizes the surface into something deeply golden and irresistible. The pan juices, brightened by lemon rounds and rosemary that roast beneath the lamb, become an instant sauce worth spooning over every slice. It's the kind of showstopper that looks like it demanded professional skill but really just rewards a little patience and good timing.
