I made this simple roasted lamb breast when I recently saw this affordable cut at the store and decided to give it a go. The result was a fall-off-the-bone, melt-in-your-mouth, tender, juicy, and flavorful meal. I like to serve a chimichurri over the top for an acidic punch but it is not necessary.
