Enjoy kebabs the healthy way with Paula Mee

Ingredients

Lamb kebabs:

  • 500 g lamb (cut into 1inch cubes)
  • 1 red onion (halved)
  • 1 green pepper (de-seeded and cubed)

Marinade:

  • 0.5 tsp cumin
  • 0.5 tsp dried oregano
  • 0.5 tsp ground ginger
  • 3 pinches cinnamon
  • juice of ½ orange
  • 1 tblsp chopped fresh coriander
  • 1 tblsp clear runny honey

Method

  1. Mix all of the marinade ingredients together in a bowl. Stir in the lamb and cover with cling film. Leave to marinade for 1-2 hours in the fridge. Meanwhile, soak some wooden skewers in water.
  2. Cut each onion half into 4 equal wedges and remove the white core from each piece. Split the wedges in half to make 16 thin pieces of onion.
  3. Place a cube of lamb onto a skewer, followed by pieces of onion and pepper. Repeat and add a piece of lamb to finish. Do the same for all 8 skewers.
  4. Preheat the grill to a medium heat. Grill the kebabs for 12-16 minutes, turning every 2-3 minutes. Allow to rest before serving with rice or couscous and salad.
