Ingredients

  • 2 each green bell peppers
  • 2 each onions
  • 2 pounds leg of lamb or shoulder of lamb, cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon mint leaves or 1/2 tablespoon fresh mint
  • 2 each garlic cloves crushed
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce, light

Method

  • Cut the green peppers first in halves and then in thirds the long way.
  • Remove the seeds and cut each piece across.
  • You now have 12 squares of green pepper.
  • Peel the yellow onions and cut in half across the middle.
  • Cut each piece in quarters.
  • Peel the layers so that you have 6 pieces about the same size as the green pepper squares.
  • Place the green peppers and onions in a large mixing bowl along with the lamb.
  • Make a sauce of the olive oil, oregano, mint (more if fresh mint), garlic and soy sauce.
  • Mix well, and pour over the meat and vegetables.
  • Mix well again and let sit for 3 hours.
  • Arrange on skewers in this order: onion, meat, green pepper, meat, onion, meat, green pepper, meat.
  • End with an onion.
  • Grill until lightly browned on all sides, approximately 15 minutes (don't overcook).
  • Notes: These can also be broiled in the oven.
  • You can substitute good beef cubes for the lamb and it still is one of the best!
