Mix thoroughly until well combined.

Form the mixture into elongated shapes around skewers.

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat or prepare a grill pan with a little oil.

Place the skewers on the grill or grill pan and cook until browned and cooked through, turning occasionally.

Before serving, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the kebabs and sprinkle with sumac for extra flavor.

Optionally, add a small piece of hot coal in a little oil and cover the kebabs with foil for a few minutes to infuse a smoky flavor.
