Ingredients

6 servings
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 medium garlic cloves, (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1½ pounds boneless leg of lamb, ( trimmed of all visible fat, cut into 30 cubes)
  • 2 small red onions, (cut into 6 wedges each)
  • 1 large green bell pepper, (seeded and cut into 12 pieces)
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ¾ cup long grain white rice, (cooked according to package directions)

Steps

  1. To prepare the marinade, combine the oil, garlic, oregano and thyme in a large zip-close plastic bag; mix well. Add the lamb, seal the bag, and turn several times to coat. Marinate the lamb at room temperature 30 minutes or refrigerate overnight.

  2. Preheat the broiler. Spray a broiler pan with nonstick spray; set aside.

  3. Thread 5 lamb cubes, 2 onion wedges, and 2 bell pepper pieces onto each of 6 (12-inch) metal skewers, alternating the ingredients. Transfer the skewers to the broiler pan.

  4. Broil the skewers 4 inches from the heat, turning at least once, until the vegetables are tender and the lamb is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve with the rice.
