Herbed Lamb, Tomato, and Zucchini Kebabs image

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 large garlic clove
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 (2-lb) piece trimmed boneless leg of lamb, cut into 1 1/4-inch cubes
3 medium zucchini (1 1/2 lb total)
24 large cherry tomatoes (3/4 lb total)
Special Equipment
16 (12-inch) wooden skewers, soaked in warm water 1 hour

Steps:

  • Mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt using a large heavy knife.
  • Whisk together garlic paste, lemon juice, and pepper in a large bowl, then whisk in oil, thyme, and rosemary until combined well. Put lamb in a large sealable bag, then add 3/4 cup herb marinade and seal bag, pressing out excess air. Marinate lamb, chilled, at least 6 hours or up to 8. Reserve remaining marinade, covered and chilled.
  • About an hour before grilling, halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut diagonally crosswise, alternating direction with each cut, to create triangle shapes. Put zucchini in another large sealable bag, then pour reserved marinade over zucchini and seal bag, pressing out excess air. Marinate zucchini at room temperature 1 hour. (Marinating zucchini any longer will result in a mushy texture.)
  • Prepare grill for cooking over direct heat with medium-hot charcoal (moderately high heat for gas); see Grilling Procedure
  • While grill is heating, drain lamb, discarding marinade, then thread cubes 1/4 inch apart onto 8 skewers.
  • Transfer zucchini to a bowl, reserving marinade, and thread zucchini onto 4 skewers (without lamb). Thread tomatoes onto remaining 4 skewers.
  • Lightly oil grill rack and grill kebabs (covered only if using gas grill), turning occasionally, until tomatoes are softened but not falling apart, 2 to 3 minutes; zucchini is tender, 4 to 6 minutes; and lamb is medium-rare, about 6 minutes. Serve kebabs drizzled with reserved marinade (from zucchini).

Tips:

  • Choose the right lamb: Look for lamb shoulder or leg, as these cuts are best for kebabs.
  • Trim the lamb: Remove any excess fat from the lamb to prevent flare-ups on the grill.
  • Marinate the lamb: Marinating the lamb in a mixture of yogurt, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and spices will help to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
  • Skewer the lamb: Use metal skewers that have been soaked in water to prevent them from burning. Thread the lamb onto the skewers, alternating with pieces of tomato, onion, and bell pepper.
  • Grill the kebabs: Grill the kebabs over medium heat for 10-12 minutes, or until the lamb is cooked through.
  • Serve the kebabs: Serve the kebabs hot off the grill, with a side of rice, pita bread, or salad.
