Ingredients

• Lamb shoulder - 500 grams
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Greek yogurt - 100 grams
• Garlic - 3 cloves, minced
• Ground cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Ground paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Fresh rosemary - 2 sprigs, chopped
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, Greek yogurt, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground paprika, salt, black pepper, chopped rosemary, and lemon juice to create a marinade.
2. Cut the lamb shoulder into 4 equal pieces and add them to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
3. Preheat your grill or barbecue to medium-high heat.
4. Remove the lamb from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off.
5. Grill the lamb pieces for about 15-20 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your desired doneness, using a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of at least 60°C (140°F) for medium-rare.
6. Once cooked, let the lamb rest for 5 minutes before serving.
7. Serve the kebabs hot with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
