Time 4h55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup chopped fresh mint
¾ cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons honey
3 pounds cubed lamb stew meat
24 pearl onions, peeled
8 bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
1 tablespoon apricot preserves
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Combine the mint, wine, lemon juice, and honey in a mixing bowl. Add the lamb and onions, and toss to mix. Cover, and refrigerate 4 hours to overnight.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil grate.
  • Strain the marinade from the lamb into a small saucepan; set aside. Thread the lamb and onions onto the skewers, using 3 onions per skewer. Cook the skewers on the preheated grill until the lamb has cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 8 minutes for medium-well.
  • Meanwhile, bring the reserved marinade to a simmer over medium heat. Whisk in the apricot preserves until dissolved, then reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer gently for 5 minutes, adding water if needed to keep the sauce from burning. Dissolve the cornstarch in 1 tablespoon of water, and whisk into the sauce to thicken; simmer the sauce 30 seconds longer. Serve with the lamb skewers.

The lamb was a bit tough, but the flavor was good. I think I would cook it for less time next time.

These skewers were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less honey next time.
