1
Remove all of the rosemary leaves from the branches except for 2 inches worth at the top of each.
-
2
With a sharp knife, cut the leafless end of each branch at an angle to make a point (this will make it easier to skewer the lamb).
-
3
Coarsely chop the rosemary leaves you removed from the branches.
-
4
Cut the lamb into 1- to 1 1/2-inch-thick, 2-ounce pieces.

5
Season the lamb with 2 tablespoons of the chopped rosemary leaves, the smashed garlic, thyme and cracked black pepper.
-
6
Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
-
7
Light a grill 30 to 40 minutes before cooking and take the lamb out of the refrigerator so it comes to room temperature.
-
8
Skewer 3 pieces of lamb on each rosemary branch; the pieces on each skewer should be of similar thickness and not skewered too tightly or they will not cook evenly.

9
Stir the feta into the Salsa Verde; taste for seasoning.

It does not usually need salt, but might need lemon and a pinch of pepper.

12
When the coals are broken down, red and glowing, brush the lamb skewers with olive oil and season generously with salt.
-
13
