    Place the leg in the oven and roast for approximately 1 hour, or until desired internal temperature has been reached.

    For rare lamb, roast to an internal temperature of 140 degrees F. and 170 degrees F. for well done.

    When the pan is removed from the oven, let the lamb rest for 10 minutes at room temperature before slicing.
