Ingredients
  

Lamb Loin
  • 2 pounds lamb loin trimmed and tied
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for searing
  • 2 teaspoons salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons rosemary fresh, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon thyme fresh, chopped
  • 1 cup red wine for deglazing

Method
 

Prepare the Lamb
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Rub the lamb loin with olive oil, salt, black pepper, minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme.
  3. Let the lamb sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
Sear the Lamb
  1. In a roasting pan over medium-high heat, sear the lamb loin on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Roast the Lamb
  1. Transfer the roasting pan to the preheated oven and roast for about 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
  2. Remove the lamb from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Make the Sauce
  1. Place the roasting pan on the stovetop over medium heat, add red wine, and scrape the bottom to deglaze, cooking until reduced by half.
  2. Strain the sauce and serve alongside the sliced lamb.
