Step by Step Method
FOR THE LAMB KEBABS
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the onion, lemon zest, lemon juice, parsley, cilantro, mint, salt, cumin, paprika, pepper, and olive oil. Stir well.
Step 2
Add the lamb and toss to coat it with the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 - 4 hours.
Step 3
Soak the bamboo skewers in warm water for about 1 hour before assembling the kebabs. (This step is important! This will prevent the skewers from burning on the grill).
Step 4
Preheat the grill to high, and lightly oil the grate.
Step 5
Thread the lamb onto the soaked skewers, and place them on the grill.
Step 6
Cook, turning frequently to promote even browning for 12 - 14 minutes.
Step 7
Wrap a pita bread around the meat on a skewer, and while holding the bread firmly around the meat, twist the skewer out of the meat.
Step 8
Drizzle the meat with feta spread to your liking. Repeat with the remaining pitas and skewers, and enjoy!
FOR THE FETA SPREAD
Step 9
Combine all the ingredients in a bowl, and stir to blend well.
Step 10
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight to allow the flavors to blend.
