Lamb Marinade

Rice

Salad

Method

Lamb Marinade

  1. 1

    Marinate the Lamb

    In a large bowl, combine the lamb cubes, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and chopped parsley. Mix well until the lamb is evenly coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight for maximum flavor.

Rice Preparation

  1. 2

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of basmati rice and 1 teaspoon of salt. Stir once, cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

Salad Preparation

  1. 3

    Make the Salad

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

Skewering and Grilling

  1. 4

    Prepare the Kabobs

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated lamb cubes onto skewers, leaving a little space between each piece. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes prior to prevent burning.

  2. 5

    Grill the Kabobs

    Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the lamb is browned and cooked to your desired doneness.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve the Dish

    On a plate, serve the grilled lamb kabobs alongside the fluffy rice and fresh salad. Enjoy your delicious lamb kabob meal!
