Curried Lamb Kabobs With Cherry Tomatoes And Red Onions Recipes

Steps:

• Cut the lamb in 1 1/2-inch cubes. You should have about 40 cubes. Combine the garlic, rosemary, thyme, olive oil, red wine, vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of salt in a medium bowl. Add the lamb cubes, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight or for up to 2 days. Toss occasionally.
• Heat a charcoal grill with coals. Spread the coals in 1 tight layer on the grill.
• Cut the red onions in quarters and separate each quarter into 3 or 4 sections. Loosely thread 3 or 4 pieces of lamb alternately with sections of onion on skewers. Sprinkle both sides of the lamb with salt and pepper. Next place 4 or 5 cherry tomatoes on skewers, threading them through the stem of the tomato. Rub the tomatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. First, place the lamb skewers on the hot grill and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, turning 2 or 3 times, until the lamb is medium rare. Approximately 5 minutes before the lamb is done, place the tomato skewers on the grill, turning once, until seared on the outside but still firm inside.
• For the sauce, bring the chicken stock, olive oil, and lemon juice to a boil in a medium pot. Lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes, until reduced in half. Add the rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and the pepper. Serve the sauce on the side.

Steps:

• For the marinade, take a 1 1/2 quart glass or stainless steel bowl, whisk olive oil, mustard, onion, vinegar, Worcestershire, curry powder, garlic and sesame oil.
• Mix in margoram, salt and pepper. Trim lamb and cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces, and place in the marinade mixture, turning to coat. Cover and chill for 3-4 hours.
• For the kebabs, clean mushrooms and discard stems. Seed bell peppers and cut into strips. Peel onion and cut into eighths.
• Remove lamb from marinade and reserve the marinade.
• Preheat the broiler. Place on each of 4 12-inch skewers a piece of lamb, mushroom cap, pepper piece and an onion piece. Repeat twice and finish with lamb.
• Place kebabs on a boiier pan 3 inches from the heat and cook for 20 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with marinade.
• Add a cherry tomato to the end of each skewer after 10 minutes.
• Serve with rice and chutneys.

Steps:

• Whisk together the garlic, turmeric, coriander, cumin, oregano, 4 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, and mint in a small bowl. Add the lamb. Toss to coat; refrigerate, covered, for at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Thread 4 cubes of lamb, alternating with tomatoes and onion, on each of 8 skewers. Brush with some of the remaining olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Arrange the skewers, off direct heat, on a medium-hot grill. Grill, rotating the skewers and brushing with olive oil as necessary to prevent sticking, until the lamb is cooked through but pink inside, about 8 minutes, depending on the heat of the grill. The vegetables should be soft.
