Instructions
- Crush the black and white peppercorns in a mortar. Add 3 garlic cloves and 2 tbsp olive oil, and continue crushing into a paste. Add salt, 1 ½ tsp paprika, chopped parsley and the remaining 5 tbsp olive oil. Mix well to combine.
- Add the marinade to the lamb in a bowl and mix thoroughly. Let it marinate for around 30 minutes at room temperature.
- Melt the butter in a small pan. Add 2 sprigs rosemary, 2 sprigs sage, 2 garlic cloves and 2 tsp paprika. Let it bubble gently for a few minutes, then set aside.
- Tie together the remaining 5 rosemary and 5 sage sprigs to create a herb brush for basting.
- Thread the marinated lamb onto skewers. You can also make separate skewers with vegetables such as tomatoes, bell peppers, mushrooms, and corn.
- Grill the lamb skewers over medium-high heat until browned on all sides and cooked to your preferred doneness. Baste occasionally with the flavored butter using the herb brush.
- Serve with yoghurt, salad and vegetable skewers, or any of your favorite summer sides.
