Ingredients
- 2 pounds (910 g) lean lamb, cubed
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) olive oil
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 small onions, quartered
Method
- Put the lamb cubes into a large resealable plastic bag
- Mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and oregano
- Reserve some marinade for basting and pour the rest over the lamb cubes in the bag
- Refrigerate it for an hour or two (or overnight, if possible)
- When you’re ready to start dinner, take out the lamb and pour off the marinade
- Thread the lamb chunks on skewers, alternating the pieces of meat with a layer or two of the onion
- You can grill these, if you like, or broil them 8 inches (20 cm) or so from the broiler
- Turn the kebabs while they’re cooking and brush once or twice with the reserved marinade using a clean utensil each time
- Check for doneness by cutting into a chunk of meat after 10 minutes; they should be done within 15 minutes
