Lamb Kebabs with Mint Pesto

Ingredients for Lamb Kebabs with Mint Pesto

• 1 cup (packed) fresh mint leaves

• 1/2 cup (packed) fresh coriander leaves

• 2 tablespoons pine nuts

• 2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese

• 1 cucchiaio di succo di limone fresco

• 1 medium garlic clove, peeled

• 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt

• 120ml (or more) extra-virgin olive oil

• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil plus additional for brushing

• 4 large garlic cloves, minced

• 2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt

• 1 1/2 teaspoons coriander seeds, ground in spice mill or in mortar with pestle

• 900g trimmed boneless leg of lamb, cut into 1 1/4-inch cubes

• 2 large red peppers, cut into 1-inch squares

• 1 large red onion, cut into 1-inch squares

• 6 to 8 metal skewers

Blend first 7 ingredients in processor to coarse puree. With machine running, gradually pour in 120ml oil; puree until almost smooth. Transfer pesto to bowl. Season with salt and pepper.

Mix 1 tablespoon oil, garlic, coarse salt, and coriander in medium bowl. Add lamb; toss to coat. Cover and chill at least 2 hours and up to 4 hours.

Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Thread lamb on skewers alternately with peppers and onions. Place on baking sheet. Brush with oil; sprinkle with pepper. Grill to desired doneness, turning occasionally, 7 to 9 minutes for medium-rare.

Arrange kebabs on serving platter. Drizzle each kebab very lightly with pesto and serve remaining pesto alongside.
