- 1.
- Cut lamb or sirloin into 1 1/2 to 2-inch cube pieces, making about 18 pieces.
- You can easily increase the amount of meat in this recipe.
- I usually make up several meat lover skewers with the meat alternating as every other piece!
- 2.
- Combine the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, oregano, bay leaves, chopped garlic, and parsley.
- 3.
- Pour over the meat and allow to stand overnight or all day in the refrigerator.
- 4.
- On the day of serving, lightly pan fry the green peppers and onions to soften them.
- Or you can broil them in olive oil for about 5 minutes.
- Cool.
- Using six 12-inch skewers, string on a piece of meat, mushroom, cherry tomato, green pepper, onion wedge, repeat and end with a piece of meat.
- Use 3 pieces of meat per skewer unless you desire the meat lovers version!
- See #1 above.
- 5.
- Brush with the remaining marinade and place on broiler rack in oven or on the grill.
- Grill on all sides for approximately 15 to 20 minutes total cook time.
- 6.
- We like to serve this with a wild rice side dish and a big salad.
