Hyvee Culinary Expert Tip
If using bamboo skewers, soak skewers in water for 30 minutes before using.- Grill skewers and lemon halves for 2 minutes. Remove lemon halves once grill marks form. Turn skewers and grill 2 minutes more or until desired doneness.
- Garnish skewers with oregano, if desired, and serve immediately with 3 lemon halves on the side for squeezing over skewers. Slice remaining lemon half and serve with skewers.
