Healthy Pork and Lamp Recipes - Lamb Kebabs
Recipe
Ingredients
2
pounds lean lamb, cut into 1-inch cubes
1/2
cup olive oil
1/4
cup lemon juice
1
clove garlic, crushed
1/2
teaspoon dried oregano
2
small onions, quartered
Serves 3
Method:
Put
the lamb cubes into a large, zipper-lock bag. Mix
together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and
oregano. Pour it over the lamb cubes in the bag, and
refrigerate it for an hour or two (or overnight, if
possible).
When it's time to cook dinner, pour off
the marinade into a bowl, and set it aside. Thread
your lamb chunks on skewers, alternating the pieces
of meat with a "layer" or two of the onion. You can
grill these, if you like, or broil them 8 inches or
so from the broiler.
Turn the kebabs while they're
cooking, and brush once or twice with the reserved
marinade, but only toward the beginning of the
cooking time; you don't want to reintroduce raw meat
germs to your cooked kebabs. Check for doneness by
cutting into a chunk of meat after 10 minutes; they
should be done within 15 minutes.
