Lebanese Style Kabobs
These Lebanese-style Kabobs are seasoned beautifully with a mix of aromatic spices and herbs, perfectly complementing the ground beef.
Ingredients
- 1½ pounds Certified Angus Beef ® ground beef (80 or 85% lean)
- 8 (12-inch) wooden skewers, soaked in water
- 1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon ground white pepper
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground clove
- ¼ teaspoon ground coriander
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- ½ red onion, finely chopped
- ¼ cup finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint
Instructions
- In a small mixing bowl, prepare spice mix by combining salt, white pepper, red pepper flakes, cinnamon, clove, coriander, ginger and nutmeg. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, onion, parsley, mint and spice mix with your hands until thoroughly combined.
- Form mixture into eight uniform logs. Skewer each log and hand-form tightly and evenly around the skewer, pulling the meat lengthwise from the skewer's tip toward handle. Leave about four inches of exposed skewer for a handle. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes or overnight covered in plastic wrap before grilling.
- Grill skewers over medium-high heat until browned on all sides and cooked through (160°F internal temperature), about 2 minutes per side.
