Preparation Steps

1

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.

2

In a bowl, combine the lamb cubes with olive oil, cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and pepper. Toss well to ensure the lamb is evenly coated.

3

Let the lamb marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature, or for up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.

4

Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat.

5

Thread the marinated lamb cubes and feta cheese cubes alternately onto the skewers.

6

Grill or broil the skewers for 8-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the lamb is cooked through and lightly charred, and the feta is softened and slightly browned.

7

Remove from heat and let rest for a minute.

8

Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
