• Preheat the grill or a grill pan on high.
• On each skewer, thread a tomato, meat, onion, pepper, meat and mushroom. Repeat until you have 16 prepared skewers. Season the skewers with salt and pepper. Grill to desired doneness, about 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium to medium-rare. Serve with the Mint Pesto.
• Combine all of the ingredients except for the oil in the blender. Pulse until well pureed. With the blender running on low, slowly drizzle in the olive oil. Taste, and adjust seasonings.

Steps:

• Add the lamb to a large gallon-size resealable plastic bag.
• Mix the olive oil, mint, white wine vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a measuring cup.
• Pour the marinade over the lamb, seal the top, and toss the lamb in the marinade, making sure it's completely coated. Place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
• Meanwhile, to make the mint sauce: Add the mint, basil, capers, red pepper flakes, olive oil, white wine vinegar, salt, and pepper to a food processor. Pulse until smooth. Turn off and taste for seasoning, adding more salt and pepper, if needed. Remove to a bowl and refrigerate until serving.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. With a clean tea towel, lightly oil the grill grates.
• Remove the lamb from the marinade, let excess drip off, and thread onto skewers.
• Season the lamb with salt and pepper. Grill for 8 minutes total for medium-rare, turning to cook all sides. Serve on a platter drizzled with sauce.

Steps:

• For pesto:
• Blend first 7 ingredients in processor to coarse puree. With machine running, gradually pour in 1/2 cup oil; puree until almost smooth. Transfer pesto to bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• For kebabs:
• Mix 1 tablespoon oil, garlic, coarse salt, and coriander in medium bowl. Add lamb; toss to coat. Cover and chill at least 2 hours and up to 4 hours.
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Thread lamb on skewers alternately with peppers and onions. Place on baking sheet. Brush with oil; sprinkle with pepper. Grill to desired doneness, turning occasionally, 7 to 9 minutes for medium-rare.
• Arrange kebabs on serving platter. Drizzle each kebab very lightly with pesto and serve remaining pesto alongside.

Steps:

• To Prepare Marinade: Coarsely chop 1 bunch of mint to make 1/2 cup (Reserve remaining mint leaves for kebabs.).
• Combine the chopped mint, oil, wine, lemon juice and cinnamon sticks in a non reactive medium bowl.
• Trim any fat from lamb and cut into about 1 1/2 inch cubes.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Add lamb to the marinade, cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours, stirring several times.
• Drain lamb well; discard marinade.
• To Prepare Kebabs: Thread the lamb onto skewers, placing a whole mint leaf between each piece of meat.
• Preheat grill to high.
• Oil the grill grate* (See Note at bottom).
• Grill the kebabs, turning with tongs occasionally, until the lamb is nicely browned on the outside and cooked to desired doneness, about 8 minutes total for medium-rare or 12 minutes total for medium.
• Transfer the kebabs to a platter or plates to serve.
• *To oil grate: Oil a folded paper towel, hold it with tongs and rub it over the grate.
• (Do not use cooking spray on a hot grill!).

Steps:

• Mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt using a large heavy knife.
• Whisk together garlic paste, lemon juice, and pepper in a large bowl, then whisk in oil, thyme, and rosemary until combined well. Put lamb in a large sealable bag, then add 3/4 cup herb marinade and seal bag, pressing out excess air. Marinate lamb, chilled, at least 6 hours or up to 8. Reserve remaining marinade, covered and chilled.
• About an hour before grilling, halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut diagonally crosswise, alternating direction with each cut, to create triangle shapes. Put zucchini in another large sealable bag, then pour reserved marinade over zucchini and seal bag, pressing out excess air. Marinate zucchini at room temperature 1 hour. (Marinating zucchini any longer will result in a mushy texture.)
• Prepare grill for cooking over direct heat with medium-hot charcoal (moderately high heat for gas); see Grilling Procedure
• While grill is heating, drain lamb, discarding marinade, then thread cubes 1/4 inch apart onto 8 skewers.
• Transfer zucchini to a bowl, reserving marinade, and thread zucchini onto 4 skewers (without lamb). Thread tomatoes onto remaining 4 skewers.
• Lightly oil grill rack and grill kebabs (covered only if using gas grill), turning occasionally, until tomatoes are softened but not falling apart, 2 to 3 minutes; zucchini is tender, 4 to 6 minutes; and lamb is medium-rare, about 6 minutes. Serve kebabs drizzled with reserved marinade (from zucchini).

Steps:

• Heat the grill to medium. Mix the yogurt and mint sauce together, then divide the mixture in half. Stir the cumin into one half of the yogurt mix, then pour over the diced lamb. Mix thoroughly to coat and season well.
• Thread the lamb onto 4 skewers, alternating with pieces of onion, then arrange on the wire rack of a grilling tray. Grill the kebabs for 3-4 mins on each side, until the lamb is cooked through and the onion is beginning to brown. Warm the pittas in a toaster for 1-2 mins and split open. Stuff the pittas with lamb, onion and lettuce, drizzling over the remaining minty yogurt to serve.
