The spice rub delivers huge flavor without marinating. Beef tenderloin makes the best kebab because they don't need a liquid soak to tenderize. Ingredients:
1 teaspoon cumin seed, coarsely cracked in a mortar |
1 teaspoon coriander seed, coarsely cracked in mortar |
1 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon cracked black peppercorns |
1 lb beef tenderloin, cut into 1 inch cubes |
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
8 medium mushroom caps |
1 small onion, cut into 8 wedges |
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
1 tablespoon soy sauce |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, mix the cumin, coriander, oregano, salt and pepper.
2. In another medium bowl, toss the beef cubes with 1 tbsp oil. Place the beef in the spices and toss to coat.
3. Thread the beef cubes onto skewers with the mushrooms and onion wedges.
4. In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons oil with the lemon juice and soy sauce.
5. Preheat a gas grill on high (or build a charcole fire and let burn until covered with white ash.).
6. Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill the kebabs, cover, turning and basting occasionally with the lemon-soy mixture, until the beef is medium-rare, about 8 minutes. Serve hot.
