Lamb Kebabs with Cucumber-Feta Relish

Ingredients

1 cup jasmine rice or basmati rice
1 1/2 lbs lame steaks (top round or shoulder) bones removed and meat cut into 1 inch cubes
1 tsp dried oregano
Kosher salt & pepper
1/2 seedless cucumber, chopped
1/2 cup crumbled feta
1/4 red onion, chopped
1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice


Directions

Cook the rice according to directions.

Meanwhile, thread the lame onto eight 6inch skewers. Season with oregano, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.

Heat on grill or grill pan to medium-high. Cook the lamb skewers, turning occasionally, to the desired doneness. It takes about 8-10 minutes for medium rare.

In a small bowl combine the cucumber, feta, onion, dill, oil, lemon juice and 1/4 tsp salt and pepper. Serve kebabs with rice and relish.
