Ingredients

  • Lamb or beef, cubed - 300 grams
  • Garlic, minced - 2 cloves
  • Fresh parsley, chopped - 2 tablespoons
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped - 2 tablespoons
  • Cumin powder - 1 teaspoon
  • Paprika - 1 teaspoon
  • Salt - 1 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
  • Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
  • Skewers - 4 (if wooden, soaked in water for 30 minutes)

Steps

  1. In a bowl, combine the cubed lamb or beef with minced garlic, parsley, cilantro, cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, olive oil, and lemon juice. Mix well to ensure the meat is evenly coated with the marinade.
  2. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for better flavor.
  3. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
  4. Thread the marinated meat onto the skewers, packing them closely together but not too tight to allow for even cooking.
  5. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat is browned and cooked to your desired doneness.
  6. Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
