Serves: 4 Save

Ingredients (9)

  • 1 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 large garlic clove, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • Wooden skewers, soaked in water at least 10 minutes

  2. Whisk together the first seven ingredients (olive oil through salt) in a medium bowl. Add the lamb or chicken. Toss to evenly coat. Let marinate up to 2 hours.
  3. Thread onto skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece.
  4. Preheat broiler or prepare grill.
