Based on a meal served in a Chicago restaurant. The waiter told me the seasonings and I guessed the quantities. The blade cut lamb chops are sold in many market as lamb shish kebab meat, making it easier!

Time 5h5m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 thick-cut blade boneless lamb chops
1/2 teaspoon parsley
1 teaspoon marjoram
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground pepper
1 green pepper, finely chopped
1 onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 cup tomato juice
1/2 cup pickle juice

Steps:

  • Cut meat into stew-size cubes.
  • Combine remaining ingredients for the marinade and pour over lamb in ziplock bag or non-metal pan, covered.
  • Marinate for 5 hours, turning every so often.
  • Skewer and grill over medium coals or gas grill until done, approximately 20 minutes, basting frequently with remaining marinade.
  • Note: Lamb should not be cooked well-done, and should be cooked uncovered. Meat should still be somewhat pink and juicy inside. I've been told thermometer should read 150 dg. for medium-rare and 160 for medium.
