Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).

Pat the leg of lamb dry with paper towels.

3

Season the lamb generously with salt and black pepper on all sides.

Make small incisions in the lamb and insert slivers of garlic.

In a small bowl, mix olive oil, chopped rosemary, and thyme to create a herb paste.

Place the lamb in a roasting pan, fat side up.

8

Surround the lamb with chopped onions, carrots, and potatoes.

9

Pour chicken broth and red wine into the roasting pan, adding bay leaves for flavor.

10

Cover the roasting pan with foil and place it in the preheated oven.

11

Roast for 2-2.5 hours, basting every 30 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare.

Remove the foil during the last 30 minutes to allow the lamb to brown.

Once cooked, remove the lamb from the oven and tent loosely with foil.

14

Let the lamb rest for 15-20 minutes before carving.

Serve with the roasted vegetables and pan juices.
