Step By Step

Instructions

1
Cut the lamb into ¾ inch-by-2-inch pieces (trim off any excess fat while cutting) and transfer to a large bowl.
2
Place the mint, cilantro, serrano peppers, garlic, ginger, yogurt, 4 tablespoons of lemon juice, canola oil, coriander, cumin, turmeric, garam masala and salt in a blender and blend on high until smooth. Pour the marinade over the lamb and mix to coat the meat completely. Thread the lamb onto the skewers, place on a sheet pan, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
3
Remove the lamb from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling. While the lamb is coming to room temperature, prepare a gas or charcoal grill and heat to medium-high.
4
Grill the lamb until it reaches your desired temperature, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare or 5 minutes per side for medium. Transfer the cooked skewers to a serving platter, tent with foil and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
5
While the skewers are resting, prepare the tomato salad. Whisk together the olive oil and remaining 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Add the tomatoes and onion, and gently toss to coat in the dressing. Season with salt to taste.
6
To serve, spoon the tomatoes around and on top of the lamb. Serve immediately.
