1 |
Prepare
sauce: In a blender, purée feta, lemon juice and
water. Season with salt and ground pepper. Cover
and refrigerate until ready to use. |
|
2 |
Heat the
grill to high. Assemble 4 long skewers,
alternating 5 lamb cubes with 2 lemon wedges on
each. Arrange the skewers in a nonmetallic dish. |
|
3 |
In a small
bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice and
garlic. Pour the marinade over the skewers; turn
to coat. Let stand for at least 5 minutes (or
cover and refrigerate overnight, turning
occasionally). Season with salt and pepper. |
|
4 |
Lightly oil
the grates. Place the skewers on the grill;
cover the grill, and cook, turning occasionally,
until grill marks are visible and the meat is
cooked to the desired doneness, 1 to 2 minutes
per side for medium-rare. Serve with the sauce,
and garnish with parsley sprigs, if desired. |
