Egyptian Shish Kebab Recipe

Recipe for Egyptian Shish Kebab Recipe

Ingredients

2 pounds beef cubes (or lamb)

1 tablespoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground ginger

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

3 garlic cloves, minced

Onion wedges

Olive oil cooking spray, or a few Tablespoons olive oil

Prepare the grill (don’t forget to spray with oil before the fire is lit.) Combine ingredients, cumin thru garlic in a dish or plastic bag. Spray the meat cubes with olive oil spray or brush lightly with the olive oil. Toss the meat cubes in the rub, either in the plastic bag or roll the cubes in the dish.

Let the meat "age" in the refrigerator for up to 20 minutes.

Thread the meat cubes and onion wedges onto skewers alternately. * Grill kebabs on the grill rack for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the meat reaches the desired degree of doneness.

Approximately 8 servings, 1 1/2 kebabs each.

If using wooden skewers be sure to soak them in water for 15-30 minutes prior to use, so they won’t burn on the grill.
