marjoram, oregano, thyme and 1 ts(5mL) pepper. Add oil very slowly

making sure it gets into slashes and place leg in shallow glass dish
just big enough for it. Cover and marinate in refrigetator several
hours or overnight. Bring out to room temperature 3 minutes before
cooking. Place leg, meaty side up, on rack in broiler pan and place

element. Broil 12 minutes; turn leg and broil 8 to 12 minutes on
other side, or until internal temperature is 140F(60C).
