A delightful recipe for lamb skewers marinated in Mediterranean flavors, perfect for grilling and serving with fresh accompaniments.
In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, juice of the lemon, minced garlic, oregano, parsley, black pepper, and salt.
Mixing the marinade thoroughly ensures even flavor distribution.
Cut the lamb shoulder into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade. Toss to coat evenly.
Cut the lamb into uniform pieces for even cooking.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, to marinate.
Marinating overnight enhances the flavor.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
Soaking the skewers prevents them from catching fire on the grill.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Ensure the grill is hot before placing the skewers for proper searing.
Thread the marinated lamb pieces onto the skewers, alternating with chunks of red onion and bell pepper.
Alternating meat and vegetables adds visual appeal and flavor.
Grill the skewers for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness.
Turn the skewers occasionally for even cooking.
Serve the skewers hot with pita bread and tzatziki sauce.
Serving with fresh accompaniments enhances the dish's appeal.
