Grilled Lamb Skewers with Yogurt Sauce

Grilled Lamb Skewers with Yogurt Sauce is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is made with succulent lamb pieces that are marinated in a flavorful blend of spices and then grilled to perfection. The dish is served with a creamy and tangy yogurt sauce that perfectly complements the rich and savory flavors of the lamb.
To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:

For the lamb skewers:

- 1 pound lamb, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes

For the yogurt sauce:

- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
To prepare the lamb skewers, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add the lamb cubes and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
When ready to cook, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Thread the lamb cubes onto the soaked wooden skewers, leaving a little space between each piece. Grill the skewers for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the lamb is cooked through and slightly charred.
To make the yogurt sauce, mix together the Greek yogurt, mint, parsley, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Serve the grilled lamb skewers with the yogurt sauce on the side.
This dish is perfect for a summer barbecue or a cozy dinner at home. The tender and juicy lamb pairs perfectly with the tangy and creamy yogurt sauce, creating a flavor explosion in every bite. The dish is also visually stunning, with the vibrant green herbs and charred lamb creating a beautiful contrast on the plate.
