Method
In medium bowl combine lamb, onion, parsley, mint, cumin, marjoram, salt and pepper; mix well. Divide lamb mixture into 4 equal portions. Form each portion into a sausage shape, pressing each onto a 12-inch wooden or metal skewer; transfer skewers to rack in broiling pan.
In a measuring cup or small bowl combine oil, lemon juice, garlic and paprika; using a pastry brush, brush oil mixture over keftas, coating all sides. Broil, turning once, until keftas are browned on all sides, 5 to 6 minutes on each side.
