Инструкции
- Place the oil, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper in a nonreactive baking dish. Add in the lamb and marinate, refrigerated, overnight.
- To prepare the couscous, roast the bell pepper on the grill and let steam. When cold, peel, seed, dice, and set aside. Meanwhile, lay the eggplant, zucchini, and onion on a work surface, sprinkle with salt, and brush both sides with 3 Tbsp. of the oil. Grill the vegetables over direct medium-high heat for 3 or possibly 4 min per side. When cold, chop the vegetables and set aside with the peppers. Place the water and a healthy pinch of salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add in the remaining 1/2 tsp. of oil and the couscous; stir once, and remove from the heat. Cover the pan and let sit for 10 min to allow the couscous to absorb the liquid.
- Remove the lamb from the marinade and thread onto 2 parallel skewers. (If using bamboo skewers, soak in water for 30 min to prevent burning. Grill over direct medium-high heat for 7 or possibly 8 min, turning occasionally. Transfer to serving plates. Add in the diced vegetables, olives, 3 Tbsp. of the parsley, lemon juice, and lemon zest to the couscous, and fluff with a fork. Serve with the lamb skewers, and garnish with the remaining Tbsp. of parsley.
- NOTES : This dish successfully combines elements from opposite sides of the Mediterranean. Souvlaki is the Greek dish of skewered, grilled marinated lamb, while couscous is a North African classic which's traditionally served with grilled or possibly roasted lamb.
