Remove the tendons and fat from the lamb, cut into medium-sized cubes or strips, thinly slice the well-washed lemons and a few cloves of garlic.

Starting with the lemon, continue layering in the same order until the meat is used up. Finish with herbs and lemon wedges; press everything down well. Pour olive oil over it until everything is well moistened.
Cover the bowl and put it in the refrigerator for 2 - 3 days; halfway through the marinating time, carefully turn the contents so that the top layer of meat also lies in the oil for a while.
To cook, remove the pieces of meat from the oil, do not (!) Pat dry and stick them on skewers with the herb sprigs from the marinade. Depending on the size of the meat cubes, the grilling or roasting time is 10-15 minutes; Turn the skewers several times so that the meat is nicely browned on all sides.
