Ingredients
- 2 lbs. lamb kabobs
- 2 whole large lemons ½ cup of squeezed lemon juice
- 5 whole garlic cloves
- 2 medium white onions
Directions
- Squeeze the lemons. Mash the garlic. Mix the lemon juice, mashed garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
- Add the marinade to the lamb kabob chunks and coating each piece well. Cover with a plastic wrap and set in the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours, or preferably overnight. Alternatively, marinate the lamb in a gallon plastic storage bag.
Skewer The Meat
- If using wooden bamboo skewers, soak the skewers for 10 minutes so they don't burn when broiling. Turn on the broiler while skewering the lamb chunks and onions.
- Peel and quarter an onion. Separate the onion pieces. Skewer the marinated lamb chunks and onion petals alternating lamb and onion.
- Place the skewers on a broiling pan.
Broil the Lamb Kabobs
- Place the broiler pan with the lamb kabobs in the top rack of the oven.
- Set a timer for 1.5 minutes to check on the progress. Each side may need anywhere from 1.5 minutes to 3 minutes. Ovens are different and cook times vary. Monitor the lamb kabobs carefully.
- Pull the lamb kabobs out of the oven and turn the kabobs a quarter turn in the same direction. Repeat for a total of four sides.
