Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 pounds lamb (trimmed of fat and cut into 1 inch pieces)
  • ½ cup lemon juice (from 2 lemons)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 medium onion (minced)
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin

Instruction

  • Make the marinade. In a big bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, oregano, garlic, onion, and ground cumin.
  • Marinate the meat. Place the lamb cubes in the bowl and toss together so that the meat is fully covered in the marinade. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours and up to 24 hours. Prep the grill. Heat a grill, or a grill pan. If using a grill pan, add some olive oil to avoid the meat from sticking.
  • Thread the meat. Thread the meat onto metal skewers. If using bamboo skewers, make sure to soak them in water for about 30 minutes before using.
  • Grill the meat. Grill the skewered meat for about 8 to 10 minutes or until cooked to your liking.
  • Serve. Serve with pita bread, tzatziki sauce and Greek salad.
