directions
- Remove the bone and skin from the meat and cut off excess fat.
- Cut the meat into 1x2 inch pieces and put them into a bowl.
- Combine all the marinate ingredients, pour over the meat, and mix thoroughly.
- Cover and let the mixture stand for 2 hours or longer at room temperature to marinate and tenderize the meat.
- This is very important for successful results.
- Drain the meat and pat dry each piece very thoroughly to prevent sputtering during cooking.
- Save the marinade for tenderizing roasts.
- When ready to broil the shashlyk, thread each skewer with a cube of lamb, a thick slice of the tomato, another piece of lamb, and then a mushroom cap, place the bacon slices between each.
- Continue in this manner until the skewer is filled.
- Prepare the WINE SAUCE by combining the wine with the remaining ingredients in a sealer.
- Close the sealer and shake it vigorously to blend the ingredients thoroughly.
- Pour the sauce into a shallow dish and roll the filled skewers in it to coat meat thoroughly.
- Place the skewers under the broiler close to strong heat.
- Turn the skewers every few minutes and baste frequently with the wine sauce.
- Total broiling time will be about 12 minutes.
- Slip the meat off the skewers onto a hot plate and season with salt and pepper.
- When steamed rice is used, place the shashlyk over it and garnish attractively.
- Serve at once.
