Ingredients
- 350 g Diced lamb
- 4 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 lemon juice only
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 garlic clove crushed
- 1 pinch sea salt and ground black pepper
- flatbreads to serve
- tzatziki to serve
Instructions
- Make the marinade by combining 4 tablespoon Olive oil, juice of 0.5 Lemon, 2 Garlic clove, 1 teaspoon Dried thyme, 1 teaspoon Dried oregano and 1 pinch Sea salt and ground black pepper.
- Put 350 g Diced lamb in a bowl with the marinade and marinate for at least 2 hours.
- Thread the skewers with the marinated lamb.
- Place the skewers on a barbecue or under a grill.
- Cook for around 12 minutes, or until it gets to a temperature of 70°C.
- Serve in Flatbreads with salad and Tzatziki.
Notes
- Bring the lamb to room temperature before putting it on the grill. This will allow for it to cook more evenly.
- Turn the skewers every couple of minutes to prevent them from burning. If they do start to burn, then move them to a cooler part of the BBQ
- You can reheat the skewers by putting them in the oven under some foil for about 15 minutes.
- The lamb freezes well if you take the chunks off the skewers and put in a container. Defrost thoroughly before reheating.
