Sriracha Lamb Kebabs Recipes

INDIAN STYLE SHEEKH KABAB

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix ground lamb, onions, mint, cilantro, ginger paste, and chile paste. Season with cumin, coriander, paprika, cayenne, and salt. Cover, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Mold handfuls of the lamb mixture, about 1 cup, to form sausages around skewers. Make sure the meat is spread to an even thickness. Refrigerate until you are ready to grill.
• Preheat grill for high heat.
• Brush grate liberally with oil, and arrange kabobs on grill. Cook for 10 minutes, or until well done, turning as needed to brown evenly.

SRIRACHA LAMB KEBABS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the lamb, onion, garlic, Sriracha, pistachios, sumac, salt, pepper, cumin, and cinnamon. Work the mixture gently with your hands until the meat becomes slightly sticky, 4 to 5 minutes. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. While the meat is chilling, soak 12 (10-inch) wooden skewers in warm water for about 30 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler or the grill to high heat. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Fill a small bowl with cold water.
• Divide the meat mixture into 12 equal balls. Gently form each portion onto a skewer, lightly wetting your hands to keep the meat from sticking to your palms. Shape each kebab into a long patty of sorts, gently squeezing to keep the meat together, wetting your hands as necessary. Set each finished skewer aside on the lined baking sheet as the others are made. When all the skewers are prepared, place them under the broiler or on the grill. Cook the kebabs, turning them once, until browned and cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Remove the meat from the skewers. Serve hot with lemon wedges and Sriracha Tzatziki on the side.
• Divide the meat into 8 equal balls. Shape into patties, and grill or broil until cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes, turning once. Serve on a sesame seed bun with sliced tomato, feta cheese, and a dollop or two of Sriracha Tzatziki.
