Arrosticini
Arrosticini is a traditional Italian dish that originated in the Abruzzo region. It consists of skewered pieces of lamb or mutton, which are grilled until they become tender and juicy. The meat is typically marinated with olive oil, garlic, and various herbs before being cooked. Arrosticini is often enjoyed as a delicious street food or served as a main course in restaurants.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds of lamb or mutton, cut into small cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Wooden skewers soaked in water for 30 minutes
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and thyme. Add salt and pepper to taste and mix well.
- Add the lamb or mutton cubes to the marinade, ensuring that each piece is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight in the refrigerator for enhanced flavor.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Take the soaked wooden skewers and thread the marinated meat cubes onto them, ensuring that they are packed tightly together.
- Once the grill is hot, place the skewers on the grill grates and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the meat is cooked to your desired level of doneness.
- Occasionally brush the skewers with the remaining marinade while grilling to keep them moist and add extra flavor.
- Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
