2 Tbsp | fresh sage |
2 Tbsp | fresh chives |
1 Tbsp | fresh lemon juice |
1 Tbsp | pure maple syrup |
2 Tbsp | dry sherry |
1 Tbsp | extra virgin olive oil |
1 Tbsp | dark brown sugar |
1/4 tsp | salt |
8 ounces | lean lamb shoulder |
2 cups | water |
4 medium | red potatoes |
1/2 medium | white onion (peeled and halved) |
1/2 | red bell pepper |
6 | shiitake mushroom caps |
Place the sage, chives, lemon juice, pure maple syrup, sherry, olive oil, brown sugar and salt in a blender and puree until smooth.
Cut the lamb into eight, one-ounce cubes. Combine the marinade and lamb in a zipper bag. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator at least four hours (overnight is best).
Place the water in a stock pot fitted with a steamer basket over high heat.
Cut the potatoes in half. Place the potatoes and the half onion in a steamer and steam for 15 minutes. Allow to cool.
Quarter the half onion and the pepper.
On a skewer place, alternate: mushroom cap, lamb cube, quartered onion, quartered pepper and potato. Keep the marinade in reserve.
Cook kabobs over a hot grill. Turn about every three minutes and baste with the remaining marinade as the kabobs cook.
