Lamb top round comes from the leg; it's a flavorful, boneless cut that's still tender enough for quick cooking.

I used beef because it's our preference. I substituted 1 tsp chili garlic sauce for the red pepper then marinated all the ingredients for 2 hours before threading onto skewers. It had some heat but not too much so even the youngest child enjoyed. Served with steamed rice and roasted broccoli for a quick and easy meal.

I used beef because the right cut of lamb wasn't available in my supermarket. It was really good! Definitely spicy!
