Instructions
Unroll roast, and trim fat. Reroll roast; secure at 2-inch intervals with heavy string. Make 10 (1/2-inch-deep) slits in surface of roast; stuff garlic halves into slits.
Combine juice and the next 6 ingredients (juice through bay leaf) in a large zip-top plastic bag.
Add the lamb; seal and marinate in refrigerator 8 to 24 hours.
Remove lamb from bag, reserving marinade, and discard bay leaf.
Place the roast on a broiler pan, and insert a meat thermometer into thickest portion of roast.
Sprinkle the roast with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Bake the roast at 450 for 20 minutes, basting once with 1/4 cup reserved marinade. Reduce oven temperature to 400 (do not remove the lamb from oven); add quartered oranges, and bake 1 hour or until thermometer registers 145 (medium-rare) to 160 (medium).
Let the roast stand for 10 minutes before slicing.
Combine the pan drippings, the remaining marinade, and cornstarch in a small saucepan; bring to a boil, and cook 1 minute. Stir in parsley.
