Greek Yoghurt Marinated Lamb Kebabs
Ingredients
- 130g (1/2 cup) Greek yoghurt
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp paprika
- 1 tbsp garlic granules/2-4 crushed garlic cloves
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp olive oil
- Meat - I used 360g lamb leg steak (diced & trimmed of fat)
- Vegetable chunks e.g. red onion, mushrooms, whole cherry tomatoes, peppers
Instructions
- Combine the yoghurt, lemon juice, paprika, garlic, salt, pepper and olive oil in a bowl before adding your meat and mixing well
- Cover the marinated meat and leave to chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours
- If you're using wooden skewers don't forget to soak them in water first so they don't burn (I prefer the metal skewers!) .. then slide on a vegetable chunk, followed by meat chunk (shake off any excess marinade) and repeat until full
- Grill your skewers until the meat is cooked (mine took around 6-8 minutes on each side)
- Serve with salad (I had spinach leaves with avocado, tomatoes, toasted pine nuts and olive oil) and wild rice or sweet potato wedges
Notes
Nutritional stats shown are for 1/4 of the marinade made with 0% Greek yoghurt (as only ~1/4 ends up on 1/2 of the meat!).
