Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams lamb loin, trimmed and cubed
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 10 pieces bamboo skewers, soaked in water
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped rosemary, thyme, minced garlic, lemon zest, ground black pepper, red pepper flakes, extra-virgin olive oil, and fresh lemon juice to create a marinade.
Add the lamb cubes to the marinade, ensuring that all pieces are well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated lamb cubes onto the soaked bamboo skewers, leaving a small space between each piece for even cooking.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, rotating the skewers evenly, until the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness (medium-rare is recommended for tender loin cuts).
Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and allow them to rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the lamb speducci hot, accompanied by a fresh salad or your choice of sides for a complete meal.
