  • 800g boneless lamb neck, cut into 2cm pieces

  • 2 tbsp chipotle chillies in adobo, finely chopped 

  • ¼ cup honey 

  • ¼ cup lime juice

  • juice and zest of 1 orange

  • 2 tbsp tequila

Method

  1. 1. Thread the lamb into 12 metal skewers. Mix the chipotle chillies with 1 tablespoon each of lime juice and honey, and brush over the lamb. Set aside to marinate for 15 minutes.

    3. Preheat a chargrill pan or barbecue over medium-high heat. Add the skewers and cook, turning regularly, for 4-6 minutes or until charred and cooked through. Set aside, loosely covered, to rest for 5 minutes. 

    4. Serve the skewers with pickled pineapple, tortillas and lime wedges.
