Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Lamb, boneless leg
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 16 pieces Wooden skewers, soaked in water
Instructions
1. Start by soaking the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes. This will prevent them from burning during the grilling process.
2. Trim the lamb of any excess fat and cut it into 1-inch cubes, ensuring even pieces for uniform cooking.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.
4. Add the cubed lamb to the marinade, and stir to ensure all pieces are well coated. Let the lamb marinate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.
5. Thread the marinated lamb pieces onto the soaked wooden skewers, distributing the pieces evenly across the 16 skewers.
6. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
7. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the lamb reaches your desired level of doneness.
8. Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
9. Serve the lamb speducci hot, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
