In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, salt, pepper, lemon juice, zest, cumin, mint and cilantro and mix well. Add lamb shoulder and toss to coat. Transfer to refrigerator and marinate over night.2
Remove lamb from marinade and thread lamb, apricots, and red onion alternating until the skewer is full.3
When ready to cook, set the temperature to 400 degrees F and preheat, lid closed 10-15 minutes.4
Lay skewers directly on the grill grate and cook for 8-10 minutes (for medium rare) or until the onions are lightly browned and lamb is cooked to desired temperature.5
Remove from grill and serve with your favorite side; cous cous, quinoa, or rice are our favorites. Enjoy!
