Servings: persons

3 medium zucchini
2 red bell peppers
1/4 cup plain Greek-style yogurt
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, plus sprigs for serving
1 teaspoon garam masala*
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/4 pounds lamb top round or sirloin, cut into 1-in. chunks

1
Heat a grill to high (about 450u00b0 to 550u00b0). Cut zucchini and bell peppers into chunks about 1 in. wide. In a large bowl, stir together yogurt, chopped cilantro, garam masala, salt, curry powder, cayenne, lemon juice, and oil. Add lamb and vegetables and toss to coat.
2
Thread lamb and vegetables onto 8 (10 in.) metal skewers, keeping some space between the pieces to help them cook evenly.
3
Grill skewers until beginning to char and easy to turn, about 5 minutes, then turn as needed until lamb is medium-rare and vegetables are lightly charred but still tender-crisp, 8 to 10 minutes total.
4
Transfer skewers to a platter and top with cilantro sprigs.
