Chunks of lean leg of lamb marinate in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, and rosemary, picking up tons of flavor despite the short soaking time. They’re skewered with fun accompaniments—colorful mini peppers (which require no prep) and canned artichoke hearts. The artichokes are delicate, so take care when flipping the kebabs to keep them from tearing or falling off. If you like fresh mint, add a few leaves for garnish.
