Xinjiang Lamb Skewers is a traditional delicacy in Xinjiang. Lamb meat itself is tender and juicy, and when grilled over charcoal, it turns golden and crispy on the outside while remaining succulent on the inside. As for cumin, it is a unique seasoning that adds a distinctive flavor to the dish. The unique aroma of cumin comes from a chemical compound called cuminaldehyde. When cumin is added to grilled lamb skewers, it imparts a rich Middle Eastern and Silk Road flavor that is unforgettable.

Notes
You can also use an oven set to high heat if a grill is not available. Simply place the skewers on a lined baking sheet and broil for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness.
