Stuffed Greek Leg of Lamb
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Place the lamb on a cutting board with the inside facing up; drizzle the olive oil evenly over the lamb. Sprinkle with the oregano and basil; layer the artichoke hearts, feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, and garlic on top. Season with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Roll the lamb to enclose the stuffing; tie with kitchen twine to prevent it from unrolling. Wrap the lamb in aluminum foil; set it in a baking dish.

  4. 4

    Roast in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 150 degrees F (65 degrees C) for medium, about 90 minutes, or until it reaches your preferred doneness. Let rest in a warm spot for 10 minutes before slicing. Reserve the pan juices for serving.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe

easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.

The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.

Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.

Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
