About Lamb skewers

Lamb skewers are a popular dish originating from Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, often celebrated for their robust flavor and aromatic spices. Typically, bite-sized pieces of lamb are marinated in a blend of olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and seasonings such as cumin, paprika, and oregano, then grilled to perfection on skewers. Packed with protein and essential nutrients like iron and zinc, lamb provides energy and supports muscle growth and immune function. The marinade often incorporates heart-healthy olive oil and antioxidant-rich spices, adding nutritional benefits. However, lamb can be high in saturated fat, so opting for lean cuts and moderation is key for a balanced diet. When served with fresh vegetable sides or whole-grain options, lamb skewers can be a flavorful and wholesome addition to a nutritious meal.
