Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, combine the olive oil, yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
  • Place the thinly sliced lamb in a resealable bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the lamb, ensuring all slices are coated. Let the lamb marinate for at least 2 hours, or ideally overnight in the refrigerator.
  • Preheat your grill or oven broiler to medium-high heat.
  • If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent them from burning.
  • Thread the marinated lamb slices onto the skewers, evenly distributing the meat.
  • Cook the kebabs on the preheated grill or under the broiler for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat is cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Once cooked, remove the kebabs from the heat and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
  • Serve the Cağ kebab with lavash bread, grilled vegetables, and your choice of condiments such as yogurt, pomegranate molasses, or tzatziki sauce.
