Grilled Lamb Kebabs

Grilled Lamb Kebabs are a succulent and flavorful dish, marinated in aromatic herbs and spices, perfect for a summer BBQ. These kebabs offer a delightful fusion of French culinary techniques with traditional Kosher practices.

Ingredients

• Lamb shoulder - 400 grams, cut into 2.5 cm cubes
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Garlic - 3 cloves, minced
• Fresh rosemary - 1 tablespoon, finely chopped
• Fresh thyme - 1 tablespoon, finely chopped
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• Red bell pepper - 1, cut into 2.5 cm pieces
• Red onion - 1, cut into 2.5 cm pieces
• Skewers - 4 (soaked in water if wooden)

Steps

1. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, paprika, cumin, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to make a marinade.
2. Add the cubed lamb to the marinade, mixing well to ensure all pieces are coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
4. While the grill heats, prepare the skewers by alternating pieces of marinated lamb with red bell pepper and red onion.
5. Once the grill is hot, place the skewers on it and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness.
6. Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
