Using a 5 pound leg of lamb, cut slits every 3 or so inches in the lamb, large and deep enough to insert sliced fresh garlic.  Marinate the lamb in prepared Maria’s Greek Dressing mix for up to six hours.  Remove the meat and reserve the marinade. Place the lamb leg in a roasting pan and cook in a preheated 350 degree oven for  1 ½ to 2 hours.  Use the reserved marinade to baste the meat during cooking. Let the cooked lamb rest about 10 minutes before carving.  The lamb will be slightly pink.  For medium rare, cook the lamb to an internal temperature of 130 degrees.
