Caramelized spicy leg of lamb with mint yogurt

caramelized spicy leg of lamb with mint yogurt

I created this dish as a school project last year and have continued to tweak it. It's very easy to put together, perfect for entertaining and hits just the right balance between spicy and orange caramelized flavors for a broad range of palates at the table. The meat has so much flavor that it does just fine standing alone without a sauce or pesto, but I serve this with mint yogurt on the side. When I first experimented with the mint yogurt, I was afraid the flavors would mute the spicy orange flavors. Instead, it's the perfect flavor complement to round out the dish when used for dipping lamb morsels. (I should note that the picture represents all that was left over the next day after a party where I served this dish. I had to make new mint yogurt for the picture as all that was gone.)
