The Best Grilled Lamb Kebabs (Shashlik)

Give lamb shashlik a try — it's so good! This was our first time making kebabs with lamb, but we loved both the meat and the marinade. Juicy, spiced, and fragrant, well-cooked but never tough — there's nothing not to like!

    1. Rinse the lamb, pat it dry, and cut it into small, tidy pieces. Peel the onion and slice it into rings. Combine the meat and onion in a roomy bowl.
    1. Make the marinade:
    • peel the garlic and finely chop it;
    • spoon the adjika into a small bowl and add the garlic;
    • break the bay leaves into a couple of pieces and add them to the bowl along with the salt;
    • pour in the vinegar and pomegranate juice, and stir.
    1. Pour the marinade over the lamb and onion, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight — or at least 4 hours if you're short on time.
    1. When the meat has marinated, thread it onto skewers, alternating with onion rings. Season lightly with salt and grill over hot coals, turning to cook on all sides. Total cooking time is 20–25 minutes. Don't overcook it, or the lamb will dry out!
  • Serve with fresh vegetables — it's even better that way!
