Recipe ⬇️⬇️⬇️ or PRINT: www.recipetineats.com/lamb-so...
Lamb Souvlaki skewers are Greek kebabs with bold garlic-lemon-oregano flavour. Sensational flavours for lamb! The smell when they hit the grill are to-die-for. Make wraps with pita bread or plates with lemon rice! - N x ❤️
Lamb Souvlaki
1.2 kg/ 2.4 lb boneless lamb leg fat trimmed, cut into 2.5cm/1” cubes (~900g / 1.8lb after trimming)
1 tsp cooking/kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
12 x 18cm/7” wooden or bamboo skewers (or metal), soaked in water for 30 min if cooking on BBQ
LAMB SOUVLAKI MARINADE:
5 garlic cloves finely minced
5 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp lemon zest
2 tsp dried oregano
3 fresh bay leaves crushed in hand (or 2 dried kept whole)
1/3 cup white wine vinegar (sub apple cider, sherry or red wine vinegar)
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp cooking/kosher salt
1. Coat lamb with the Marinade Ingredients in a bowl and marinate for 12 - 24 hours in the fridge. Thread onto skewers.
2. Stove: Sprinkle skewers with the salt & pepper. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Cook half the skewers for 3 min, turn then cook the other side for 3 min until nicely seared. Transfer to platter, cook remaining skewers.
3. BBQ: Drizzle skewers with oil, sprinkle with salt & pepper. Cook on medium high preheated BBQ (flat iron side) 3 min each side.
4. Pile onto platter and serve with warmed pita breads, Greek salad chopped small or finely sliced lettuce + tomato slices, with tzatziki or hummus. (For quick sauce, just use yogurt + olive oil + squeeze of lemon + salt + pepper).

This dish of lamb shish originally from TÜRKİYE 🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷

[@Dr_LK]

Please make pork souvlaki. Is the most popular type of meat in Greece. Forget beef and lamb and whatever else.

[@journeyman6752]

The pork must be 100% halal too! This is the best!!

[@jacquelinemcmanus3495]

Lamb souvlaki is not really a thing in Greece. Turkey does Lamb souvlaki. Greece does pork and chicken souvlaki.

[@footfall4559]

We could not afford it, hence we switched the meats to pork, chicken is a new thing, less than 40 years since the fad started.

[@nicelady51]

Dang. Music is too annoying to watch.
