Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams ground lamb
- 1 medium (finely grated) onion
- 3 cloves (minced) garlic
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon (freshly squeezed) lemon juice
- 8 pieces wooden skewers
Instructions
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, grated onion, minced garlic, parsley, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
Add the olive oil and fresh lemon juice to the mixture. Using your hands or a spatula, thoroughly mix until all ingredients are evenly combined.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions. With damp hands, shape each portion around a wooden skewer to form elongated kebabs, about 4-5 inches long.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Place the kebabs onto the hot grill. Cook for 6-8 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until the kebabs are browned and cooked through to your desired doneness.
Once cooked, remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve the lamb kebabs with your favorite accompaniments, such as dairy-free tzatziki, flatbread, or a fresh salad.
