Ingredients:


  • 2 cups whole-milk yogurt, divided
  • 1 teaspoon plus 3 1/2 tablespoons Tabil Spice Blend
  • 5 large garlic cloves, minced, divided
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 4-5 pound butterflied leg of lamb, opened like a book
  • 4 lemons, halved
Preparation:

Step 1:

  1. In a small bowl, combine 1 cup yogurt, 1 teaspoon Tabil Spice Blend, and 1 minced garlic clove. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 cup yogurt, 3 1/2 tablespoons Tabil Spice Blend, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, olive oil, and lemon juice.
  3. Place the butterflied leg of lamb in the bowl and coat it with the marinade mixture. Cover and refrigerate overnight, turning occasionally.
Step 2:

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Season the marinated lamb with additional salt and pepper.
  3. Grill the lamb until cooked to your desired doneness, approximately 10-15 minutes per side for medium-rare.
  4. Let the lamb rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  5. While the lamb is resting, grill the lemon halves, cut side down, until charred, about 5 minutes.
  6. Thinly slice the lamb against the grain and arrange it on a platter. Garnish with the grilled lemons.
  7. Serve with the reserved yogurt sauce. Enjoy!
