Oven Roasted Lamb Leg Recipe

Lambs are one of my favorite proteins because it is clean and versatile in so many recipes. My husband also loves eating lamb recipe, so I decided to make this recipe with lamb instead of beef, and it came out delicious.

According to bodyandsould.com, Chilli contains up to seven times the vitamin C level of an orange and has a range of health benefits, including fighting sinus congestion, aiding digestion and helping to relieve migraines and muscle, joint and nerve pain. It’s also a good source of vitamins A and E, beta-carotene, folic acid, and potassium.

Seeds of its plant are a rich source of minerals such as calciummagnesium, phosphorous and potassium. Along with this, it is a good source of dietary folate and vitamin A. Mustard greens or leaves of mustard plants are an excellent source of essential minerals including potassiumcalcium and phosphorous. (Organicfacts.net).

While garlic ranks as an excellent source of manganese and vitamin B6, a very good source of vitamin C and copper, and a good source of seleniumphosphorus, vitamin B1, and calcium in the WHFoods rating system, it is the sulfur compounds in garlic that serve as its spotlight nutrients in terms of overall health.

I hope you enjoy this recipe just as much as we did.
