How to Make Greek Lamb Brochettes
- Cut 1 lb trimmed lamb leg into 1 1/2-inch cubes.
- In a large glass baking dish, combine the lamb cubes with 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Toss everything to ensure the lamb is evenly coated with the marinade.
- Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and no more than 8 hours, turning the lamb occasionally.
- Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat.
- Thread the marinated lamb cubes onto six to eight skewers.
- Place the skewers on the preheated grill or broiler pan.
- Grill or broil, basting occasionally with the marinade, for 9-12 minutes, or until desired doneness is reached (9 minutes for medium-rare, 12 minutes for medium-well). Remember to turn skewers frequently for even cooking.
- Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before serving with tzatziki sauce and your favorite Cabernet Sauvignon.
