Ingredients:

1 onion, chopped

2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice

4 garlic cloves, minced

1 Tablespoon finely chopped fresh dill

1 Tablespoon dried oregano

1 Tablespoon paprika

½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper

1 pound boneless leg of lamb, trimmed of all visible fat and cut into 1 ½-inch cubes

1 onion, cut into 8 wedges

1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1-inch pieces

Directions:

To prepare the marinade, puree the onion, lemon juice, garlic, dill, oregano, paprika, and pepper in a blender or food processor. Transfer to a zip-close plastic bag and add the lamb. Squeeze out the air and seal the bag; turn to coat the lamb. Refrigerate, turning the bag occasionally, at least 3 hours or up to overnight.

Soak 4 (8-inch) bamboo skewers in water about 30 minutes so they won’t burn under the broiler.

Oil the broiler rack with oil ; preheat the broiler. Alternately thread the lamb, onion, and bell pepper on the skewers. Broil the skewers 3-4 inches from heat until the lamb is done to taste, 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare and 4-5 minutes on each side for well done.
