Step 1
Pat lamb cubes dry. Toss with Aleppo pepper, cumin, paprika, lemon juice, 1 tbsp oil, and a pinch of salt.
Step 2
Thread lamb onto skewers, packing pieces snugly. Let rest 5 minutes while you heat a skillet over medium-high.
Step 3
Add 1 tbsp oil to the hot skillet. Sear kebabs 3–4 minutes, rotating every 90 seconds, until deeply browned on all sides.
Step 4
Transfer kebabs to a plate. Add remaining 1 tbsp oil and broccoli to the same skillet; sear 4–5 minutes, stirring once, until edges crisp.
Step 5
Season broccoli with salt and pepper. Serve kebabs and broccoli hot from the skillet.
