Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Lamb shoulder or leg, boneless
- 10 sprigs Fresh rosemary sprigs
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 6 pieces Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
1. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
2. Cut the lamb into 1.5-inch pieces and set aside.
3. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, black pepper, salt, and the leaves from 2 rosemary sprigs (chop them finely). Mix well to form the marinade.
4. Add the lamb pieces to the bowl and toss them in the marinade until evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the lamb marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight for more flavor).
5. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
6. Thread the marinated lamb pieces onto the skewers, alternating them with small pieces of rosemary sprigs for added flavor and presentation.
7. Place the skewers on the hot grill and cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the lamb is browned on the outside and cooked to your desired doneness (medium-rare is recommended).
8. Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes.
9. Serve the rosemary lamb skewers warm with a side of lemon wedges, salad, or flatbread.
