Season the butterflied leg of lamb with salt and cracked pepper.

Liberally coat the lamb with basting oil, garlic, thyme, and parsley, using tongs to ensure even coverage on all sides.

Place the seasoned lamb in a Ziploc freezer bag and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or up to 24 hours to marinate.

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Remove the marinated lamb from the bag and place it directly onto the grill.

Let the lamb sit on the grill for a couple of minutes to develop grill marks before flipping it over.

Cover the grill and reduce the heat to medium, cooking the lamb for 5 to 10 minutes depending on desired doneness.

Remove the lamb from the grill and let it rest on a cutting board for a few minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

Slice the lamb into pieces for serving.

Plate the sliced lamb with grilled vegetables and Santorini couscous, drizzling roasted red pepper sauce around the lamb.
