1 c. dry white wine
1 tsp. salt
˝ tsp. pepper
˝ tsp. rosemary
1 tsp. thyme
1 tsp. oregano

Bone the leg of lamb or have your butcher do it for you.  Pound lamb with a meat mallet to an even thickness.  Place in a shallow glass dish.  Mix remaining ingredients until well blended and pour over lamb.  Turn meat in marinade, cover and marinate in refrigerator overnight.

Drain lamb and reserve marinade.  Grill 6 inches above gray coals for 30 minutes, basting with marinade and turning every 10 minutes.  Cut into thin slices (lamb will be pink) and sprinkle with additional chopped fresh mint.  Serve with mint jelly.

Makes 6 servings.


Marina's Chicken Gumbo

1 whole chicken
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 T. parsley
3/4 tsp. red pepper
salt and pepper
1/4 c. celery
1/2 c. onions
1/2 c. red peppers
1/2 c. green peppers
1/4 c. flour
1 1/2 c. water
3 c. sausage (optional)

Boil chicken until done (approximately 1 hour) in water with garlic, parsley, red pepper, salt, and black pepper to taste.  Bone the chicken and save the stock.  In a heavy skillet, sauté celery, onions, and peppers until done and slightly brown.  Turn the burner on high and add flour to the skillet mixture; cook until brown and add water to make gravy.  Add skillet mixture to chicken and stock and cook on low heat 1 to 2 hours.

For a spicier gumbo, add sausage and more red pepper.  You may also add shrimp or crawfish to the chicken stock.
