Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. Put 350 g Diced lamb in a bowl with the marinade and marinate for at least 2 hours.
  3. Thread the skewers with the marinated lamb.
  4. Place the skewers on a barbecue or under a grill.
  5. Cook for around 12 minutes, or until it gets to a temperature of 70°C.
  6. 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.
