Ingredients

• Lamb shoulder - 400 grams
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Garlic - 3 cloves, minced
• Cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Red onion - 1 medium, cut into chunks
• Bell pepper - 1 medium, cut into chunks
• Yogurt (full-fat, unsweetened) - 100 grams
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• Fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped

Steps

1. Cut the lamb shoulder into 2.5 cm cubes and place them in a mixing bowl.
2. In a separate bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, black pepper, and salt to create a marinade.
3. Pour the marinade over the lamb cubes and toss well to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.
4. Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
5. Preheat the grill or BBQ to medium-high heat.
6. Thread the marinated lamb, red onion, and bell pepper onto the skewers alternately.
7. Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness.
8. While the skewers are grilling, mix the yogurt and lemon juice in a small bowl for the dipping sauce.
9. Serve the grilled skewers hot, garnished with fresh parsley and accompanied by the yogurt sauce.
