   Step 2

   Set your oven to 350 F (175 C). Clean and try with a paper towel the entire lamb leg. Take the paprika rub and put a thin layer all over the meat. Make sure not to miss any surface area.

   Step 4

   Take a sharp kife and cut small holes large enough to stuff garlic (your halved garlic pieces). Crame the garlic as deep as you can into the meat. Do this 5-6 times. I try to find strategic places where there is going to be a good amount of meat around it.

   Step 5

   Seer the outside of the meat. You want to cook the paprika rub into the meat. You can do this over the stove, on the grill or my favorite technique is with a blow torch. The main objective is to just cook the outer skin so as the meat cooks the rub doesn't come off.
