Remove the lamb from the refrigerator one hour before cooking to reach room temperature. Preheat your oven to 220°C.
Remove the lamb from the marinade, reserving the liquid. Pat the meat dry with paper towels and rub with half of the olive oil. Place in a roasting pan and roast for 20 minutes until browned.
Remove the lamb from the oven and reduce the temperature to 160°C. In a small bowl, combine the orange zest, lime zest, remaining olive oil, honey, cinnamon, ground fennel, and minced garlic to create a paste.
Lay a large sheet of baking parchment on a large sheet of aluminum foil. Place the lamb on top, coat thoroughly with the spice paste, and drizzle the reserved marinade into the base. Scrunch the foil to seal tightly.
Roast the lamb for 4 hours until the meat is very tender. Once finished, allow the lamb to rest, still wrapped in the foil, for 30 minutes before serving with the accumulated juices.
