Lamb and Artichoke Kebabs with Greek Yogurt Dip image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 1/2 lemons
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon dried mint
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 1/2 pounds boneless leg of lamb, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
Vegetable oil, for the grill
1 Japanese eggplant, halved lengthwise and sliced 1/2 inch thick
1 10-ounce package frozen quartered artichoke hearts, thawed
1/2 cup pitted green olives
Kosher salt
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1 clove garlic, chopped

Steps:

  • Combine 3/4 cup olive oil, the juice of 1 lemon, the paprika, dried mint, 1/2 teaspoon cumin and the red pepper flakes in a large bowl. Add the lamb and toss to coat; cover and refrigerate 1 to 4 hours.
  • Preheat a grill to medium high and brush the grates with vegetable oil. Thread the lamb, eggplant, artichokes and olives onto eight 10-inch skewers; season with salt. Grill the kebabs, turning occasionally, until marked, about 10 minutes for medium.
  • Meanwhile, make the yogurt dip: Puree the yogurt, the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, juice of 1/2 lemon and1 teaspoon cumin, 2 tablespoons water, the chopped mint, garlic and 1 teaspoon salt in a blender until smooth; serve with the kebabs.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality ingredients. Fresh herbs, juicy lemons, and flavorful feta cheese will make all the difference.
  • Don't overcrowd the skewers. Leave some space between the chicken pieces so that they cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken breasts are very lean and can easily become dry. Cook them over medium heat until they are cooked through, but still juicy.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve the chicken kebabs with a variety of dipping sauces. Tzatziki sauce, hummus, and mint-feta dip are all great options.
  • Enjoy the chicken kebabs immediately. They are best when served fresh off the grill.

Conclusion:

Greek chicken kebabs are a delicious and easy-to-make summer meal. They are perfect for a backyard barbecue or a weeknight dinner. The juicy chicken is marinated in a flavorful blend of herbs, lemon, and olive oil, then grilled to perfection. The mint-feta dip adds a refreshing and creamy touch. These kebabs are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
