🔥 Cooking Method (recommended – oven/casserole)

Slow cooking for tenderness + strong finish for browning

2️⃣ Season with salt and pepper and brush with olive oil , lemon , oregano and garlic .
3️⃣ Place in a baking pan/dish with ½–1 glass of water or broth .
4️⃣ Bake covered for 3–4 hours (depending on weight).
5️⃣ Uncover and increase to 200–220°C for 15–25 minutes for a nice crust.
