Instructions
  1. In a blender, combine the onion, garlic, parsley sprigs, lemon zest, lemon juice, allspice, salt and saffron and puree until smooth.
  2. Transfer the marinade to a re-sealable plastic bag, add the cubed lamb and turn to coat. Seal the bag, pressing out any air.
  3. Refrigerate the lamb for at least 6 hours or preferably overnight.
  4. Light a grill or preheat a grill pan.
  5. Drain the lamb, shaking off the excess marinade and thread it onto 4 long skewers, leaving a bit of room between the cubes. Brush the lamb with the oil and grill over high heat, turning occasionally, until lightly charred, about 5 minutes for medium-rare meat.
  6. Serve the lamb skewers with warm pita and Greek yogurt.
