Grilled Shish Kabob

Serves about 4.

What you need

1. 2 lb lamb sirloin cut into cubes
2. 1 red bell pepper cut into 1 inch pieces
3. 1 onion, cut in quarters, each quarter cut in half crosswise
4. Olive Oil
5. Fresh mint, minced
6. Lemon Juice
7. Ground Allspice
8. Salt & Pepper

How to make it

1. Combine lamb pieces, pepper and onion pieces in a mixing bowl
2. Drizzle with olive oil to coat and add mint, lemon juice, allspice, salt & pepper and allow to marinate about 1 hour at room temperature, or 2 or more hours in the refrigerator
3. Prepare hot coals
4. Remove lamb from marinade and place on skewers, adding a couple pieces of pepper and onion per skewer
5. Place directly over hot coals, turning to char all over the lamb
6. When charred, check for doneness - if not cooked to your liking, move to the side of the grill and cover
7. Check every few minutes until done
8. Remove to a platter and allow to cool slightly
9. Remove meat and vegetables from skewers

I like this with a salad of tomatoes and cucumbers with lemon vinaigrette
