Gazebo Room Lamb Kabobs

Gazebo Room Lamb Kabobs

This is our favorite way to showcase the versatility of Gazebo Room as a marinade. From the savory lamb, to the tangy bell peppers, let your guests experience all of the ways that Gazebo Room brings out the best flavors in their food.

Total Time: 30 min

Makes: 6 servings

Ingredients:

3 lbs. lamb loin (trimmed, 2 inch cubes)

3 lg. Portobello mushroom caps (cored, sliced in 2 inch squares)

2 yellow bell peppers (cored, sliced in 2 inch squares)

½ Vidalia onion (wedge, separate)

24 cherry tomatoes

Dressing: 6 oz. Gazebo Room Greek Salad Dressing and Marinade

Preparation:

Place lamb cubes, mushrooms, peppers, and onions in a resealable food storage bag. Pour in Greek Dressing, seal and refrigerate. Allow to marinate for a minimum of 4 hours. Overnight marination will provide best results. Remove bag from refrigerator and remove contents while saving marinade for basting. On 15 inch stainless steel skewers, thread lamb cubes and vegetables alternately, using 4 pieces of each. Preheat grill to high setting and place kabobs on grate. Turn heat down to medium setting to avoid excessive flaming. Turn periodically while basting with excess marinade. Kabobs should be medium-rare in 10-12 minutes. Serve over a bed of rice.

Notes:

If 15 steel skewers are not available, pre soak 10-12 inch bamboo skewers for a minimum of 30 minutes before assembling kabobs. When using shorter skewers, reduce portions to 3 pieces of lamb and vegetables per kabob. This will yield an additional 2 kabobs (8 servings).

Gazebo Room Grilled Tuna Steak with Pepper Relish

Gazebo Grilled Tuna* Steak with Pepper Relish

Here’s an entree that really brings out the true potential of Gazebo Room as a marinade. The spicy pepper relish is a masterpiece in its own right, and as soon as you taste it, you’ll think of several of your own dishes that it would work with.

Total Time: 45 min

Makes: 6 Servings

Ingredients:

6 tuna steaks (6-8 oz.)

1 red bell pepper (cored, diced)

1 yellow bell pepper (cored, diced)

1 sm. Roma tomato (diced)

½ sm. Vidalia onion (diced)

3 tbsp. fresh basil (chopped)

Dressing:

6 oz. Gazebo Room Lite Greek Salad Dressing and Marinade

2 oz. Gazebo Room Balsamic Vinaigrette Salad Dressing and Marinade

Preparation:

In a 9 x 12 baking pan, place tuna steaks and pour on Lite Greek Dressing. Marinate for a minimum of 4 hours. Marinating overnight will yield best results. When ready to grill, preheat grill on high setting. Place tuna on grill and reduce heat to medium setting to reduce flaming. Remaining dressing can be used for basting. Cook on each side at medium for 5-7 minutes or until firm to the touch. To prepare pepper relish, in a medium skillet, pour in Balsamic Vinaigrette and turn to high heat. When dressing begins to crackle, add peppers, tomato, onions, and basil. Sautee until tender. When Tuna Steaks are done, place on serving platter and spoon on pepper relish.

Notes:

*Equally delicious substitutes for tuna include Mako, Marlin, Salmon, Halibut, Swordfish, or any other fish steaks that will withstand turning over a grill. For flakier fish or fillets, a fish grilling basket will be necessary. If you would like to hear more recipes, you can ask about different Gazebo Room Dressing flavors, courses, or ingredients, like chicken, pasta, Seafood, vegetarian and more, or say exit to leave the skill.
