A delightful twist on a classic Moorish dish, these saffron-spiced lamb skewers are perfect for grilling and sharing.
Cut the lamb fillets into bite-sized cubes.
Ensure uniform size for even cooking.
In a bowl, combine cumin, fennel, minced garlic, saffron dissolved in warm water, oregano, sherry vinegar, and olive oil.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the spices are well distributed.
Add the lamb cubes to the marinade, mix well, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
The longer the marination, the deeper the flavors.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Ensure the grill is hot to achieve a good sear.
Thread the marinated lamb onto skewers.
Leave some space between pieces for even cooking.
Grill the skewers for about 5 minutes on each side until cooked through.
Turn occasionally to prevent burning.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
Serve with a side of flatbreads and a fresh salad for a complete meal.
