Roast Lamb with Marionberry-Pecan CrustLeo Gong

Jan Schroeder of Corvallis, Oregon, writes: "A great thing about my job is that I get to do a lot of cooking. I work for the berry industry and one of my duties is developing recipes. I often get ideas from local chefs, but it's also rewarding to see what I can come up with on my own."

Test-kitchen tip:

For fresh breadcrumbs, grind pieces of crustless French bread in food processor to coarse crumbs.
