Pear & Lamb Kebabs With Harpoon Ale-Rosemary Pan Sauce
97
To make the kebabs, you’ll need eight 10-inch wooden or bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 20 minutes. Metal skewers may overcook the lamb, so use only metal if you like your meat well done.

Directions
- In large bowl, whisk together olive oil, cinnamon, lemon juice, rosemary and garlic. Add lamb and toss to coat. Marinate in refrigerator at least 3 hours. Discard marinade.
- Preheat oven to 250°F.
- In large bowl, combine lamb, pears, bell peppers, salt and pepper. Thread lamb, pears and peppers alternately on skewers.
- Preheat large skillet over medium-high heat and grease with canola oil. When pan is hot, sear kebabs until dark golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer kebabs to warmed platter, cover and keep warm in oven.
- Add ale to skillet, scraping up browned bits with wooden spatula, and simmer until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Turn heat to low and add brown sugar, stirring until smooth.
- Remove pan from heat and whisk in butter until fully incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over lamb kebabs and serve immediately.
