Lamb Kabobs

Aromatic Rice

Naan

Method

Lamb Kabobs

  1. 1

    Marinate the Lamb

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the cubed lamb and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.

  2. 2

    Prepare Skewers

    If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning. After marinating, thread the lamb cubes onto the skewers, packing them tightly.

  3. 3

    Grill the Kabobs

    Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness.

Aromatic Rice

  1. 4

    Rinse the Rice

    Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.

  2. 5

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, salt, cinnamon stick, and cardamom pods. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes.

Salad

  1. 6

    Prepare the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine diced cucumber, diced tomato, sliced red onion, and chopped parsley. In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to combine.

Naan

  1. 7

    Warm the Naan

    Warm the naan bread in a microwave or on a grill for a couple of minutes until soft and warm.
