Directions

Step 2Thread on to the skewers. Barbecue or griddle over medium heat for 10min, turning regularly, until lightly charred. Alternatively, arrange on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment and cook in an oven preheated to 200°C (180°C fan) mark 6 for 15min, turning halfway.
Step 3Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, mix the parsley scatter ingredients with plenty of seasoning.
Step 4To serve, transfer the skewers to a serving plate and sprinkle over the parsley scatter. Serve with flatbreads and hummus, if you like.
GET AHEAD Assemble the skewers up to a day ahead; cover and chill. Complete recipe to serve.
