• Servings: 8
• 4 garlic cloves

• 1 tablespoon ground cumin

• 2 teaspoons salt
• 2 teaspoons ground black pepper

• 1 lime, cut into wedges

Recipe

• 1 place the garlic, onion, oregano, cumin, chile pepper, salt, and pepper into a blender. pour in the olive oil and vinegar. puree until smooth. spread this mixture all over the lamb loin, and place into a slow cooker.
