Fennel-Rubbed Leg of Lamb with Carrots and Salsa Verde
If you buy a roast that's already tied, simply rub the fennel and chile flake spice mix on the outside. If it's untied, double the spice mix and rub half on butterflied roast before rolling, tying, and rubbing the rest on the outside to ensure every inch is infused with the flavorful spice.
