Lamb skewers with cilantro and onions

For the perfect kebab, you only need two basic ingredients: a leg of lamb and fruit firewood. Fruit firewood gives the meat a subtle sweetish woody flavor. Cherry is best for lamb. A distinctive feature of this tree is a large amount of nutrients in the cells of the trunk and branches. Because of this, cherry firewood smokes a little and when burned, all these unique formations fill the smoke (and hence the meat) with a unique shade and smell.

How to cook Lamb skewers with cilantro and onions

Step 1

Lamb skewers with cilantro and onions

Marinate the meat a few hours before cooking. To do this, cut the flesh from the leg into small pieces. We cut the onion into rings, coarsely chop the cilantro. We spread in the pan in layers: meat, cilantro and onion. Salt.

Lamb skewers with cilantro and onions - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, while leg of lamb is recommended, you can also use lamb shoulder or loin. Keep in mind that the cooking time may need to be adjusted depending on the cut and the size of the pieces.
Store leftover cooked lamb skewers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Ensure the meat cools down completely before refrigerating.
Yes, you can freeze the marinated lamb. Place the marinated meat in a freezer-safe bag or container and freeze for up to 2-3 months. Thaw completely in the refrigerator before skewering and grilling.
These lamb skewers pair well with a variety of sides, such as grilled vegetables, rice pilaf, couscous, pita bread, or a fresh salad with a lemon-herb vinaigrette.
If you don't have fruit tree firewood, you can use other hardwoods like oak or maple. Avoid softwoods like pine, as they can impart an unpleasant flavor to the meat. Charcoal briquettes are also a viable option.
Yes, you can cook these indoors using a grill pan or under the broiler. For the grill pan, cook over medium-high heat, turning frequently. Under the broiler, place the skewers on a baking sheet and broil, turning occasionally, until cooked through.
To prevent sticking, lightly oil the grill grates before placing the skewers on them. You can also soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before using them to help prevent them from burning.
