Grilled Lamb Kebabs (Kabab Barg)

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Lamb Kebabs (Kabab Barg).

1. Step 1

   To start your delicious lamb kebabs, grab a large zip-top food storage bag and pour in some olive oil, fresh lime juice, grated onions, crushed garlic, a pinch of saffron, salt, and black pepper.

2. Step 2

   Give it a good mix to combine all those vibrant flavors.

3. Step 3

   Next, add your lamb pieces to the bag, seal it tightly, and shake it up so every piece is beautifully coated in that aromatic marinade.

4. Step 4

   For the best flavor, let the lamb marinate in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or even better, overnight.

5. Step 5

   When you're ready to cook, preheat your outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grill grate to keep everything from sticking.

6. Step 6

   Now, it’s time to assemble your kebabs! Thread the marinated lamb onto long, thin metal skewers, and on separate skewers, add whole tomatoes for a burst of sweetness.

7. Step 7

   Before grilling, brush the lamb and tomatoes with the leftover marinade from the bag, but be sure to discard any excess.

8. Step 8

   Place your kebabs on the grill and cook for about 5 minutes on each side, or until the lamb reaches your preferred level of doneness and the tomatoes are sizzling with lovely grill marks.

9. Step 9

   For an extra touch of flavor, sprinkle some sumac over the grilled kebabs just before serving.
