Armenian Lula Kebab Recipe

ground lamb

🥗Healthier: ground chicken

💰Cheaper: ground beef

Ground chicken is lower in fat, while ground beef is often more affordable.

lavash

🥗Healthier: whole wheat pita

💰Cheaper: tortillas

Whole wheat pita adds fiber, while tortillas are typically less expensive.

Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.

Finely chop onion and parsley, then combine with ground lamb in a bowl.

Add cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and minced garlic to the meat mixture.

Mix thoroughly by hand until well combined and slightly sticky.

Divide the mixture into equal portions and mold onto skewers.

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).

Brush the kebabs with olive oil to prevent sticking.

Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally.

Remove from the grill when the meat is browned and cooked through.

Serve hot with lavash, sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, and a sprinkle of sumac.

Garnish with lemon wedges for squeezing over the kebabs.
