If you’re looking to make Maremmana lamb at home, there are a few key ingredients to consider. In this article, we’ll share a recipe for Maremmana lamb that is sure to impress.

Ingredients:

– 4 lbs Maremmana lamb shoulder, bone-in
– 6 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary leaves, chopped
– 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
– 1/2 tablespoon sea salt
– 1 teaspoon black pepper
– 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
– 1/2 lemon, thinly sliced
– 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. In a small bowl, mix together minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and black pepper to form a paste. Massage this paste over the entire surface of the lamb shoulder.

5. Place the lamb shoulder back into the pan and add lemon slices on top. Cover the pan with a lid or aluminum foil.

6. Bake in the preheated oven for 2-2 1/2 hours, or until the internal temperature of the lamb reaches 145°F (63°C) for medium doneness. Remove from the oven and let rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.

7. Serve hot with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
