Skewer Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

1

Marinate the Lamb

In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, ground cinnamon, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and chopped parsley. Add the cubed lamb shoulder and mix well, ensuring all pieces are coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for the best flavor.

2

Prepare the Skewers

Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat. While the grill is heating, thread the marinated lamb onto the soaked wooden skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.

3

Grill the Skewers

Once the grill is hot, place the skewers on the grill. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the lamb is browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness.

4

Serve

Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve hot with additional parsley and lemon wedges if desired.
