This dish is made with succulent lamb meat that is marinated in a blend of spices and grilled to perfection. The dish is served with a side of fresh vegetables and a tangy yogurt sauce that perfectly complements the rich flavors of the lamb.

To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:

- 1 pound of lamb meat, cut into cubes
- 1 tablespoon of paprika
- 1 tablespoon of cumin
- 1 tablespoon of coriander
- 1 tablespoon of garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon of salt
- 1/2 cup of olive oil
- 1/4 cup of lemon juice
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh mint
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 green bell pepper, cut into chunks

To begin, combine the paprika, cumin, coriander, garlic powder, and salt in a small bowl. Add the olive oil, lemon juice, parsley, mint, and cilantro, and whisk until well combined. Place the lamb cubes in a large bowl and pour the marinade over the top. Toss to coat the lamb evenly, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
When you are ready to cook the lamb skewers, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Thread the lamb cubes onto skewers, alternating with the onion and bell pepper chunks. Grill the skewers for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the lamb is cooked through and the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
