These easy grilled kebabs are a flavorful option and easy to prepare. You will need to plan ahead for this recipe since the lamb needs to marinate for 4 to 6 hours. These are grilled on a stovetop grill pan, but you can also cook these on an outdoor grill over medium-high heat; the cooking time may vary slightly from this recipe. Swap red onion chunks or yellow, orange, or green bell peppers for the red bell peppers, if you prefer. Invest in reusable metal skewers so you won't need to keep wooden ones, which need to be soaked, on hand.
