Lamb Shish Kebob & Orzo
We had a great dinner last night! Marinated lamb shish kebob with orzo- only 6 points! Here's the recipe:2 Tbsp olive oil
salt & pepper to taste
2 tsp dried oregano
zest & juice of one lemon
1 pound boneless leg of lamb (~1-inch chunks)
cherry tomatoes
bay leaves
zucchini pieces, cut into 1-inch chunks
2 cups cooked orzo (no oil or salt)
Put oil, salt, pepper, oregano, zest & juice into a ziploc bag. Add lamb pieces and marinate at least 30 minutes or overnight. Skewer lamb, tomato, bay leaves and zucchini on 4 skewers. Grill 10 - 12 minutes for medium rare. Serve with 1/2 cup orzo per serving.
The recipe is for four servings (6 points/serving), theoretically making four skewers. We used lamb shank, as leg of lamb isn't kosher, and suprisingly it was quite tender (lamb shank tends to be a tougher cut of meat than leg of lamb). The longer you marinate the lamb, the more tender it will become. Excellent meal, and very quick- great for camping!
