Print Recipe

Juicy and flavorful lamb kebabs made with marinated lamb chunks grilled to perfection, perfect for a hearty meal or summer barbecue.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs lamb shoulder or leg, cut into 1.5-inch cubes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp plain yogurt
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp chili flakes (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 red onion, cut into chunks (for skewering)
  • 1 bell pepper, cut into chunks (for skewering)
  • Wooden or metal skewers

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, coriander, paprika, cinnamon, chili flakes, salt, and pepper.
  2. Add the lamb cubes to the marinade and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best flavor.
  3. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
  4. Thread the marinated lamb onto skewers, alternating with onion and bell pepper pieces.
  5. Preheat grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates.
  6. Grill the kebabs for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally, until lamb is cooked to your desired doneness and slightly charred.
  7. Remove from grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, marinate the lamb overnight.
  • Serve with rice, pita bread, or a fresh salad.
  • You can add other vegetables like zucchini or cherry tomatoes to the skewers.
