Ingredients

  • 1 lb lamb shoulder, cubed into 1.5-inch pieces
  • 1 whole (juiced) lemon
  • ½ medium onion, cut into chunks
  • 1 tbsp fresh oregano or dried oregano
  • 2 ears corn on the cob
  • 2 whole bread rolls
  • ½ tsp paprika

Instructions

  1. 1

    Thread lamb pieces and onion chunks alternately onto metal skewers, dividing evenly between two skewers.

  2. 2

    Pour lemon juice over the skewers, then sprinkle with oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Let sit 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Heat grill to medium-high (if no grill, use a grill pan over medium-high heat). Lightly oil the grates.

  4. 4

    Grill lamb skewers 10–12 minutes, turning every 2–3 minutes, until edges char and meat feels firm but still juicy.

  5. 5

    Grill corn, turning every 1–2 minutes, until lightly charred, about 6 minutes. Toast bread rolls cut-side down for 1 minute.

  6. 6

    Transfer kebabs, corn, and bread to a plate. Squeeze any remaining lemon over the lamb and serve hot.
