2 lbs boneless leg of lamb
1/2 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 large garlic, peeled and crushed
1 teaspoon dry white wine
1 small bay leaf
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon dried oregano
1/8 teaspoon dried rosemary leaves
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 large onions, peeled and cut into 8 wedges each
2 large green bell peppers, cut into 8 pieces each
12 medium mushrooms, stemmed and wiped clean
2 large tomatoes, stems removed & cut into 8 wedges

  • Drain lamb kebabs, reserving marinade.
  • Thread separate skewers of lamb, onion, green pepper, and mushrooms and place on a broiling tray.
  • Baste vegetables with some of reserved marinade.
  • Broil about 4 inches from heat, turning frequently, as follows: green pepper, about 7 minutes; onions, about 12 minutes; mushrooms, about 3 minutes.
  • Remove skewers and allow to cool slightly, until ingredients and skewers can be handled.
  • Leave broiler on.
  • Remove skewers from ingredients and rethread 4 or 8 skewers (depending on size of skewers) so that each one includes, in alternating pieces, some lamb, onion, green pepper, mushrooms, and tomato.
  • Baste again with any remaining marinade.
  • Return skewers to broiler and, turning frequently, broil until meat is reheated and cooked medium-rare, vegetables are slightly blackened in spots, and tomatoes are very tender but not yet falling off skewers (5 to 7 minutes more).
