Steps:

• To make the vinaigrette, whisk together the oil, vinegar, garlic, dried and fresh oregano, thyme, and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Pat the lamb dry and place it into a shallow platter. Season it well with salt and pepper. Pour 1/2 the vinaigrette over the lamb and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours.
• Heat the grill or grill pan and oil it lightly. Remove the lamb from the marinade and grill for about 15 to 20 minutes per side for medium-rare. (Adjust the time accordingly for other degrees of doneness.) Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Carve into thin slices.
• Toss the mache, mint leaves, and scallions in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Dress the salad with about 3 tablespoons of the vinaigrette and mix well. Place the lamb onto a serving board. To serve, spread the Lemony Chickpea Puree over the lamb and put the greens on top of the puree.
• Drain and rinse chickpeas and put them into a saucepan. Cover with cold water by 2 inches; add the bay leaf and salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer beans until tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Drain, reserving about 1 cup of the cooking liquid. Remove the bay leaf and discard.

• For the tomato sauce: Add the tomatoes to the grill basket; grill, turning occasionally, until charred all over in spots, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl; remove the peels when cool enough to handle. Crush the tomatoes with your hands, then stir in the olive oil, cinnamon and a large pinch of salt.
• For the flatbreads: Reduce the grill to medium low. Grill the naan, top-side down, until grill marks appear, about 4 minutes. Flip and top with the tomato sauce, meatballs and feta; drizzle generously with olive oil. Cover and grill until the naan are slightly crisped and the feta has warmed through, rotating the naan 45 degrees halfway through, about 6 minutes.

Steps:

• Make the dressing:.
• In a bowl add the red vinegar to the sun dried tomatoes, and whisk in the olive oil until emulsified. whisk in the basil,oregano,diced tomato and salt & pepper to taste.
• Make the salad:.
• Coat the slices of lamb with the pesto, cook on only one side over a hot grill.
• Fry the sliced garlic until crisp and golden in the olive oil.
• In a bowl, combine the white beans, red onion, arugula, half of the dressing, salt & pepper.
• Divide the salad among 4 plates, garnish with the fried garlic and sliced basil. Place 3 slices of lamb on each plate and spoon the remaining dressing over the top.

Steps:

• Lamb and sauce:
• Lay lamb shoulder, cut side up, on a work surface. You will notice it's made up of a few muscle groups, separated by thin strips of fat and gaps where the bones have been removed. Use a sharp knife to separate the shoulder into smaller pieces along these natural seams-you should end up with 5 or 6 pieces of various sizes. Transfer lamb to a glass baking dish and season generously on all sides with salt and pepper.
• Pulse onions, rosemary leaves, and oregano leaves in a food processor until finely chopped; set remaining rosemary sprigs aside. Add vinegar and oil and pulse until a coarse purée forms. Season marinade with salt and pepper, then pour over lamb, turning to coat. Cover and let sit at room temperature 2-3 hours.
• Mix yogurt, lemon juice, and garlic in a medium bowl. Season sauce with salt and pepper; cover and chill until ready to use.
• Tomatoes and assembly:
• About half an hour before you plan to start grilling, slice tomatoes into 1/2"-thick rounds and arrange on a large platter. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with half of lemon juice. Top with onion, season with salt and pepper, and drizzle remaining lemon juice over. Arrange reserved rosemary sprigs on top; set aside.
• Prepare a grill for medium heat. Without scraping off marinade, transfer larger pieces of lamb to grate and grill until underside is very well browned, about 5 minutes. Spoon some remaining marinade over lamb, turn, and continue to grill, turning every 5 minutes or any time you see a flare-up, until lamb is charred in spots and very well browned everywhere.
• After large pieces have been cooking about 15 minutes, add smaller pieces to grill and follow same instructions; they take less time to cook, and by staggering the start times, all the lamb will come off the grill within a few minutes of each other. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of each piece should register 140°F for medium, which is ideal. Start checking smaller pieces after 7-10 minutes. The largest piece will take closer to 30 minutes. As each piece finishes, transfer to reserved platter, setting on top of rosemary. Let rest 20-30 minutes.
• Transfer lamb to a cutting board and tuck rosemary sprigs off to sides of platter. Tip platter so that accumulated tomato and lamb juices pool at one end and spoon over tomatoes. Using a long sharp knife, slice lamb into very thin pieces and arrange on top of onion and tomatoes. Season with salt and drizzle with oil.
• Drizzle yogurt sauce with oil and serve alongside lamb.
• Do Ahead
• Lamb can be seasoned 1 day ahead; cover and chill. Sauce can be made 8 hours ahead; keep chilled.

Steps:

• 1. Combine everything but the lamb in blender. Whiz until thick and creamy, about a minute. 2. If butcher has tied the leg of lamb, untie it. Lay it out fat side down on a rimmed baking sheet using a sharp knife, slash the thickest parts of the lamb. Pour about half the marine over the meat, and rub it in well with your hands. Turn the lamb over and pour remaining marinade over the fat side, again rubbing it in well. 3. Fold the lamb in thirds and put it into a zip-close bag or shallow pan. Pour remaining marinade from the baking sheet over the lamb. Refrigerate 8-24 hours, turning the bag or flipping the lamb every 2 hours or so. 4. At grilling time, make a hot fire. Unfold the lamb and pat away the excess marinade. Discard remaining marinade. Put the lamb on the grill cut side up and cook for 9 minutes. Turn the lamb over and cook an additional 9 minutes. Transfer the lamb to a platter and allow to rest for 15 minutes before carving.

Steps:

• Mix olive oil, mustard, lemon juice, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl.
• Place the whole rack of lamb into a large zip-top bag and pour mustard mixture all over it. Massage the sauce into the meat until fully coated. Place in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or up to 6 hours.
• Clean an outdoor grill and preheat for high heat. Lightly oil the grate.
• Remove lamb from the refrigerator and discard marinade. Wrap exposed bones in a layer of aluminum foil to prevent them from burning and flaking.
• Place lamb on the preheated grill over direct heat. Sear the surface briefly, just until a dark brown crust starts to form, about 3 minutes; be careful it doesn't burn. Flip and sear the other side.
• Move onto indirect heat and close the grill. Cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 120 degrees F (58 degrees C) for medium rare, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Transfer lamb to a serving dish and cover with foil for 5 minutes. Remove all foil and cut into chops to serve.

Steps:

• Stir together honey, vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper and transfer to a sealable plastic bag.
• Add lamb, then seal bag, pressing out excess air and turning to distribute marinade.
• Marinate lamb, chilled, turning occasionally, 1 hour.
• Bring lamb to room temperature.
• Prepare grill for cooking. If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill and on lid.
• Remove lamb from marinade, reserving marinade.
• When fire is medium-hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 3 to 4 seconds), grill lamb on lightly oiled grill rack, turning once, about 4 minutes total for medium-rare.
• Transfer to a platter and keep warm, covered.
• Cook tomatoes (still on vine, if using) in disposable roasting pan, covered with grill lid, carefully turning, until softened and just beginning to split, about 8 minutes.
• Drizzle balsamic vinegar over tomatoes, turning to coat, then cook, uncovered, until vinegar is reduced by about half, about 2 minutes.
• Remove from grill.
• Bring reserved marinade with any lamb juices accumulated on platter to a boil in a small heavy saucepan, covered.
• Drizzle lamb with marinade and serve with tomatoes.
• Cooks' note:
• Lamb and tomatoes can also be grilled in batches in a lightly oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat (tomatoes will take less time to soften, about 3 minutes).

Steps:

• If using a broiler, turn it on.
• Wash and trim lamb.
• Grate the ginger and mince the garlic. Mix with sugar, soy sauce and coriander in a bowl large enough to hold the lamb. Add the lamb and set aside.
• If using a top-of-the-stove grill, prepare it. Grill or broil lamb about 10 minutes, basting with marinade occasionally. Slice thinly and serve.

Steps:

• Mix all marinade ingredients together in a glass bowl.
• Place the lamb in a extra large heavy-duty plastic bag or glass bowl.
• Pour the marinade over the lamb, and turn to coat well on all sides.
• Cover tightly with plastic wrap (if using a glass bowl).
• Place in the fridge for a minimum of 24 hours (turning occasionally to distribute marinade).
• When ready to grill, remove from fridge and save marinade for basting if desired.
• Turn the grill to high heat.
• Sear both sides for about 5 minutes on each side.
• Reduce grill temperature to medium heat and finish cooking the lamb.
• You may baste the lamb with the leftover marinade if desired.

Steps:

• Mix first 10 ingredients in bowl.
• Pour marinade into large freezer bag.
• Marinate fish at least 20 minutes with bag sealed at room temperature.
• Thinly slice the tomato and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Place fish on hot grill. Add salt and pepper to taste. (Fresh ground is preferred).
• As the fish cooks (3-5 minutes per side), use a brush and mop the marinade onto fish.
• Turn salmon a quarter (90 degrees) after a quarter of the way through cooking. (This will give it nice grill cross hatch marks).
• Flip fish half way though cooking. Add salt and pepper to taste to this side as well.
• Continue to baste the fish with marinade. (Try to use all if possible).
• Turn fish another 90 degrees after 3/4 done cooking.
• Before fish is completely cooked, top it with thinly sliced tomato. Top tomato with fresh basil. Top basil with crumbled goat cheese. Shut the grill for a minute or two before taking fish off. Let rest a few minutes and enjoy!
• Feel free to make the marinade to taste. It should be sweet, and salty, and sour. I did not measure anything out when making this dish. I simply tasted it a few times until it was balanced the way I liked it.
