Ingredients




3 pounds boneless leg of lamb (which you may need to plan ahead and order from your butcher), cut into 1 ”-2” cub
Marinade
In a bowl, mix together;
2 cups olive oil
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 cup of lemon juice (fresh or bottled)
8 garlic cloves minced (hence the dental floss)
2 tablespoons fresh oregano (more dental floss)
Feta Sauce;
3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 cup Greek yogurt
8 garlic cloves, minced (once again…..dental floss)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Preparation

1 For the Kebabs; 2 I always marinate the meat the night before, and then all that’s left to do the following day is to thread the kebabs and toss them on the grill. 3 Between the two recipes, I had about 36 kebabs. They make awesome leftovers! 4 For both the lamb and the steak kebabs you will need; 5 Skewers, if using bamboo, soak in water for at least 30 minutes 6 lbs New potatoes for each kebab recipe (I made 6 lbs for 2 recipes), boiled for 30 minutes or so, until they are extremely tender. Drain and cool on a tray or foil lined cookie sheet until cool enough to handle. Once the potatoes are cooked, they are fine left at room temperature for quite a while. 7 pint grape tomatoes 8 red onion, cut into 1” pieces for the lamb 9 white onion, cut into 1” pieces for the steak, chicken and/or shrimp 10 For the kebabs: 11 In a large re-sealable baggie, combine lamb and marinade, refrigerating overnight. 12 For the feta sauce: 13 If you like it lumpy, simply mix in a bowl and refrigerate 14 If you like it smooth, pulse in the blender and refrigerate

About


As the More is More Mom®, I’m all about……….more Mediterranean dishes! I’m sorry, but there is little tastier than fresh herbs and garlic (and creamy, melt-y cheese), though repeated flossing is very likely necessary. This is the perfect menu for an outdoor dinner with family and friends. And if you like lamb, you’re in for a real treat!
