4 cloves garlic |
1 tablespoon cilantro (about) |
1/2 teaspoon cumin seed |
3 -4 tablespoons spicy paprika |
1/4-1/2 teaspoon leaf thyme |
1/4 cup olive oil |
2 tablespoons lemon juice or 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Using a mortar and pestle, mash garlic, cilantro, cumin, paprika, thyme, salt and pepper.
2. Add olive oil and lemon juice or vinegar and mix well.
3. Place 4-5 pieces of meat on each skewer (for best results, first soak skewers 1/2 hour in water).
4. Put skewer in a container and top with marinade.
5. Let marinate for 2-3 hours, turning every once in a while.
6. Grill over medium heat until cooked through- about 10-15 minutes, turning as needed.
