Middle Eastern Kebabs Recipes

Steps:

• Once your meat and veggies have been prepped let the skewering fun begin! Thread a piece of green pepper onto the skewer. Follow it with a cube of beef, then one half of a preserved lemon, a couple of pieces of red onion, another piece of beef, a piece of red pepper and cap it with a mushroom. Repeat the process with the rest of the skewers. Set all of the kabobs into a roasting pan in one layer and set aside.
• Place the remaining ingredients in a medium sized bowl and whisk until well incorporated. Pour the mixture over the kabobs and refrigerate 1 hour.
• Preheat an outdoor charcoal or gas grill to high heat. Place the kabobs on the grill and cook 3 minutes per side. Remove and serve immediately or let cool, pack 'em up and take them on a picnic.
• Serve with Cucumber-Yogurt Sauce.
• Combine all ingredients in a food processor and pulse several times to make a chunky sauce.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a bowl and let rest in the refrigerator for about a half an hour.
• Form into sausage like shapes and thread onto skewers.
• Heat oil on griddle over medium heat and fry the kebabs, turning until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 10-15 minutes depending on thickness.
• Alternatively, you can grill the skewers (be sure to soak the skewers first if they are made of bamboo).
• Serve with lebne (cucumber, yogurt and mint sauce), or sliced cucumbers and tomatoes.

Steps:

• mix all ingredients in a food processor, pulse for a few seconds just enough to mix them. If you don't have a food processor, mix them well with your hands in a bowl.
• shape like jumbo hotdogs, not footlong just 3 inches long :P
• skewer them and grill each side until cooked; you can put 2 kebabs for each skewer then serve warm.
