Ingredients

  • 500 grams Ground lamb
  • 1 medium, deseeded and finely chopped Red bell pepper
  • 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
  • 3 minced Garlic cloves
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons, finely chopped Fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat or prepare a barbecue for cooking.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb with the finely chopped red bell pepper and onion.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to the bowl.

Step 4

Mix in the finely chopped parsley to integrate the fresh, herby flavor into the kebab mixture.

Step 5

Using your hands, mix all the ingredients thoroughly to ensure even distribution of spices and herbs.

Step 6

Divide the lamb mixture into 4 equal parts and form each into a long, cylindrical shape around metal or pre-soaked wooden skewers.

Step 7

Lightly brush each kebab with olive oil to prevent sticking on the grill.

Step 8

Place the kebabs on the preheated grill and cook for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally to cook each side evenly, until they are nicely browned and fully cooked through.

Step 9

Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve the Low Carb Adana Kebabs hot with your choice of sides, such as a fresh salad or grilled vegetables.
