Ingredients

  • Lamb shoulder - 500 grams, trimmed and cut into thin strips
  • Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
  • Garlic - 3 cloves, minced
  • Fresh rosemary - 1 tablespoon, chopped
  • Fresh thyme - 1 tablespoon, chopped
  • Paprika - 1 teaspoon
  • Cumin - 1 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - ½ teaspoon
  • Salt - 1 teaspoon
  • Lemon juice - 2 tablespoons
  • Red onion - 1 small, thinly sliced
  • Tomato - 1 medium, diced
  • Cucumber - 1 small, diced
  • Fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped

Steps

  1. In a large bowl, combine the lamb strips with olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, paprika, cumin, black pepper, salt, and lemon juice. Mix well to coat the lamb evenly. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat your grill or BBQ to medium-high heat.
  3. Thread the marinated lamb onto skewers, leaving some space between each piece for even cooking.
  4. Grill the lamb skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned and cooked to your desired doneness.
  5. While the lamb is grilling, prepare a fresh salad by mixing the sliced red onion, diced tomato, diced cucumber, and chopped parsley in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Once the lamb is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
  7. Serve the grilled lamb skewers alongside the fresh salad, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
