3 tablespoons orange juice
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon harissa
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, chopped
1 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 lb lamb, cut in 12 cubes (leg or shoulder)
8 large medjool dates, seeded
4 bacon, slices cup in half or 8 slices prosciutto
1 onion, cut in 12 cubes
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut in 12 cubes
1 lemon, cut in 8 cubes
salt and pepper
4 wood skewers, soaked 30 minutes in water or 4 metal skewers
Directions:
1. Marinade: In a dish or a bag with hermetic seal, mix all ingredients of the marinade. Add lamb. Cover the dish or close the bag. Put in fridge 4 hours or overnight.
2. Lamb Skewers: Preheat bbq to medium heat. Oil the grill.
3. Roll bacon around each date. Set aside.
