Serves:

Ingredients

  • 2 kg leg lamb, boned, butterflied and trimmed of fat (see note)
  • 1 cup (250mL) Kikkoman Roasted Garlic Marinade & Stir Fry Sauce
  • 3 tablespoons (60mL) rice vinegar
  • 1/2 tablespoon (10mL) olive oil
  • Juice 1 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon (20mL)ginger, grated
  • 1/2 cup onion, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon chilli flakes
  • Extra 1/2 cup Roasted Garlic Marinade & Stir Fry Sauce for serving


Method

  1. For the marinade, combine the rice vinegar, olive oil, lemon juice, Kikkoman Roasted Garlic Marinade & Stir Sauce, ginger, onion and chilli flakes and mix to combine
  2. Place lamb in a large, flat non-metallic dish and pour over the marinade, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator for 2 hours to marinate, turning once
  3. Pre-heat barbecue grill on moderately high heat. Remove lamb from refrigerator and pat dry with paper towels to help prevent burning. Reserve marinade
  4. Cook lamb for 10-12 minutes each side, or until cooked to your liking, basting from time to time with the reserved marinade
  5. Transfer meat to a carving board and allow it to rest for 15 minutes before slicing
  6. Place half a cup of Roasted Garlic Marinade in a small jug and serve separately


Tips & Hints

  1. Note: Your butcher will do this for you. Make sure most of the fat is removed, otherwise it may burn. Marinade can be made the day before and refrigerated until needed. Marinate lamb for 4-6 hours or overnight in refrigerator for a deeper flavour.
