Ingredients

  • 1 pound lamb, top round or lamb loin, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 2 clove garlic, coarsely chopped
  • 4 tablespoon moruno spice blend
  • 2 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 cup roughly chopped mint
  • 1/2 cup roughly chopped flat-leaf parsley

Preparation

Baking Directions:

Skewer the lamb onto the skewers and season with kosher salt and Moruno spice mix.

I like to skewer three cubes each to make a nice-sized appetizer.

In a large baking pan, combine the olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, parsley and mint and add the skewers of lamb, turning to coat thoroughly in the marinade.

Cover with plastic and set aside to marinate for a few hours or overnight in the refrigerator.

Pre-heat the grill or a griddle pan to medium-high and quickly sear the skewers about 1-2 minutes on each side.

Season with finishing salt and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and serve.
