Ingredients:


4 pound Leg lamb;about 4 lb. -- boned

1/2 cup Olive oil

1/2 cup Dry white wine

1 medium Juice of 1 lemon

2 teaspoons Dried oregano

20 milliliters Garlic -- crushed or chopped

3 pieces bay leaves -- broken in pieces

1 teaspoon -salt and freshly ground

1 teaspoon -black pepper to taste
 

Preparation / Directions:


Cut lamb into 1 1/2 inch cubes and place in a non-reactive (glass or earthenware) dish. Add remaining ingredients to lamb, mix well to coat meat, and cover. You can also place all ingredients in a heavy plastic bag and seal. Leave in refrigerator to marinate for 12-24 hours, stirring meat occasionally. Lift lamb out of marinade and thread onto metal skewers. Pieces of bay leaf may be placed between lamb cubes. Since most vegetables have different cooking times, I would suggest that you skewer peppers, onions, etc. separately and serve them together with the lamb. If you wish these may be marinated also (in a separate bag.) Cook under a hot broiler or over glowing charcoal, turning and basting frequently with marinade. I like this best medium rare. Keep checking the meat -- the cooking time will vary because charcoal fires are so variable. Place on a platter and garnish with parsley and lemon wedges.
