Garlic-Stuffed Lamb with Rosemary

30 minutes

Garlic-stuffed lamb with rosemary is a true embodiment of French gastronomic sophistication. Deep cuts in the juicy meat filled with aromatic garlic pieces create a vibrant, rich flavor that harmoniously complements the freshness of rosemary and the warmth of black pepper. Marinating overnight allows the meat to fully absorb the aromas, while roasting at high temperature preserves its juiciness and forms an appetizing crust. This recipe recalls the traditions of southern France, where simple yet elegant combinations of natural ingredients are cherished. The dish is perfect for a festive dinner, revealing its full potential alongside a glass of red wine and a side of roasted vegetables.
