For the Lamb Shish Kebab:

1. In a bowl, combine all the ingredients and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.

2. Preheat your grill to 475°F.

3. Skewer the lamb pieces, discarding the onions as they will burn on the grill.

4. Transfer the kebabs to the grill and cook until grill marks form, about 7 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until grill marks form and the thickest part of the meat reaches an internal temperature of 140°F for medium, about 4 more minutes. If using a gas or charcoal grill, cook the kebabs over direct, medium-high heat.

5. Transfer the kebabs to a serving platter and top with the onion garnish.
