What is a good, healthy main dish I can cook for Easter?

Leg of Lamb


1/2 cup packed fresh basil leaves


1/4 cup packed fresh mint leaves


1/4 cup packed fresh parsley leaves


2 tablespoons toasted pine nuts


2 tablespoons grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese


2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil


1 clove garlic, peeled


1 teaspoon salt, divided


1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper


1 3 1/2-pound boneless leg of lamb, butterflied and trimmed


Preheat oven to 350F. Place basil, mint, parsley, pine nuts, cheese, oil, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper in a food processor and process until fairly smooth. Sprinkle lamb all over with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the pesto; spread the rest over the top side of the lamb and roll it closed. (It will not be a perfect cylinder.) Tie kitchen string around the roast in five places; do not tie too tightly or the pesto will squeeze out. Rub the reserved pesto over the outside of the lamb and place in a roasting pan. Roast the lamb until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 140F for medium-rare, about 1 hour 20 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board; let rest for 10 minutes. Carve the lamb, leaving the string in place to help hold the roast together.
