  Categories: Meats, Main dish, Marinades
       Yield: 6 Servings
  
       2    Green Peppers
       2 lg Yellow onions
       2 lb Leg of lamb or shoulder of
            Lamb, cut into 1 1/2" cubes
     1/2 c  Olive oil
     1/2 ts Oregano
     1/2 ts Dried mint or
       1 tb Fresh mint
       2    Garlic cloves, crushed
       1 tb Light soy sauce
  
   Cut the green peppers first in halves and then in thirds the long way.
   Remove the seeds and cut each piece across. You now have 12 squares of
   green pepper.
     Peel the yellow onions and cut in half across the middle. Cut each
   piece in quarters. Peel the layers so that you have 6 pieces about
   the same size as the green pepper squares.
     Place the green peppers and onions in a large mixing bowl along
   with the lamb.
     Make a sauce of the olive oil, oregano, mint (more if fresh mint),
   garlic and soy sauce. Mix well, and pour over the meat and
   vegetables. Mix well again and let sit for 3 hours.
     Arrange on skewers in this order: onion, meat, green pepper, meat,
   onion, meat, green pepper, meat. End with an onion. Grill until
   lightly browned on all sides, approximately 15 minutes (don't
   overcook).
     These can also be broiled in the oven.
     You can substitute good beef cubes for the lamb and it still is one
   of the best!
