Mary Had A Little Lamb Kebab Marinade Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Blend onion, vegetable oil, garlic, lemon juice, oregano, paprika, salt, cumin, and Worcestershire sauce together in a blender until smooth and creamy to form the marinade.
• Place lamb cubes in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour marinade into the bag, making sure to cover each piece. Refrigerate 4 hours to overnight.

Steps:

• Combine the yogurt, olive oil, lemon zest and juice, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a large, non-reactive bowl. Add the lamb, making sure it is covered with the marinade, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight or for up to 2 days.
• Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals. Spread the coals in one tight layer on the grill.
• Cut the lamb in 1 1/2-inch cubes. You should have about 20 cubes.
• Cut the red onion in 8 pieces and separate each piece into 3 or 4 sections. Loosely thread 3 or 4 pieces of lamb onto skewers alternately with sections of onion. Sprinkle both sides of the lamb cubes with salt and pepper. Place the skewers on the hot grill and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, turning 2 or 3 times, until the lamb is medium-rare.

Steps:

• Combine ingredients for the marinade and pour over lamb chunks (or other cuts). Marinate for 5 hours. Place lamb on skewers (or on rack, if not kebabs). Broil on all sides over medium coals to medium-rare to medium doneness, basting frequently with remaining marinade.
• (Note: This is enough for up to 4# lamb.).

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 the white sauce, mix all the ingredients till well combined in a small bowl.
• For the red sauce, mix all the ingredients till well combined in a seperate small bowl.
• Drizzle over the donar kebab or gyro.

Steps:

• Build a fire in your grill; when the coals are covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium high (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 3 to 4 seconds), you're ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn all burners to high, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes, then turn burners to medium high.)
• While the fire is heating up, trim the lamb of all but a thin layer of fat and cut into 32 more-or-less-equal chunks. Combine in a bowl with the 1/4 cup of olive oil and the salt and pepper and toss well to coat, then thread them onto skewers, about 8 chunks per skewer; they should snuggle up to one another but not be tightly pressed.
• Put the skewers directly over the coals and cook, turning to expose all 4 sides to the direct heat of the coals, until done to your liking, 2 to 3 minutes a side (8 to 12 minutes total) for medium rare. To check for doneness, cut into one of the chunks and check to see if it is done to your liking - remove from the heat when it is just slightly less done than you want it to be when you eat it.
• While the lamb is cooking, prepare the remaining ingredients but keep in separate containers. Slide the lamb chunks off the skewers into a large bowl, add the remaining oil, lemon juice, garlic and marjoram one after another, toss well to coat, season to taste if needed and serve.
