Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F.
Combine the goat cheese, rosemary and garlic in a small bowl and mash together until well combined.
Lay the butterflied leg of lamb flat on a cutting board and season generously with salt and pepper.
Spread the goat cheese mixture on one side of the butterflied lamb then pick up the other side and close it over top. Tie the lamb together using 3-4 pieces of string so it's secured well.
Drizzle the surface of the lamb with avocado oil and now season the outside with salt and pepper.
Drizzle a tablespoon of avocado oil in a 12" cast iron skillet over high heat. Once hot, place the lamb in the skillet and brown on both sides, about 4 minutes per side.
Once browned, transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and cook for about 15-18 minutes for medium-rare or until internal temperature reaches 145°F.
Remove from oven, cover and let rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
