Shishliki Chops
New problems need new solutions! We actually can't keep enough shishliki in the freezer. We are working on that, but it the meantime we have taken lamb chops - both shoulder and loin - and had them marinated in our shishliki recipe. Same amazing flavour. Ready for the grill; no skewers needed!
STORY
Roughly translated from the Russian language, shishliki means "marinated meat". It truly is Saskatchewan cuisine, originating with Doukabour settlers in and around the Canora - Kamsack region. Shishliki is traditionally made with lamb (our preference for sure).
INGREDIENTS
Saskatchewan Lamb, lemon juice, onion, salt, garlic, dextrose, corn starch, spices
COOKING TIPS
I say it over and over... Don't undercook the shish! You need some good grill/broiler marks on there (it's just extra flavour) for it to be done right, otherwise it will be too tender (ie. mushy). Here's two options: on the grill or in the oven!
