Turkish lamb kebabs are all about juicy meat, bold spices, and smoky flavor. They’re simple, satisfying, and perfect for grilling at home or sharing with guests.

You’ll need ground lamb, onion, garlic, parsley, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, olive oil, and skewers. Optional additions: chili flakes or sumac for extra punch.

Blend or grate onions and garlic to release more flavor. Mix them thoroughly into the lamb to infuse every bite with deep, aromatic taste.

Form the lamb around flat metal skewers, pressing firmly to secure. Let them chill in the fridge for 30 minutes so they firm up before grilling. 

Cook kebabs on a grill or grill pan, turning occasionally until browned and slightly charred outside, and juicy inside. It usually takes about 10–12 minutes.

Pair your kebabs with warm pita or lavash, creamy garlic yogurt, and a crisp tomato-onion salad. These sides balance the rich meat and enhance the meal.

A sprinkle of tangy sumac or fresh lemon juice adds brightness. It cuts through the richness and gives your kebabs that extra zing typical of Turkish cuisine.

These lamb kebabs are smoky, juicy, and full of flavor. Perfect for BBQs, dinner parties, or weeknight treats. Bringing a taste of Turkey straight to your plate.
