- Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Place the apricots in a medium bowl. Cover with boiling water and let sit for at least 30 minutes to plump up.
- Thread a piece of marinated lamb, an apricot and then a piece of red onion onto a metal or wooden skewer, repeat in that order until the skewer is filled with all the ingredients.
- Grill kabobs over medium-high heat on an outdoor grill or stovetop grill pan, flipping once browned and grill marks appear, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
