The spice rub delivers huge flavor without marinating. Beef tenderloin makes the best kebab because they don't need a liquid soak to tenderize.

Number Of Ingredients 11

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

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, mix the cumin, coriander, oregano, salt and pepper.
  • In another medium bowl, toss the beef cubes with 1 tbsp oil. Place the beef in the spices and toss to coat.
  • Thread the beef cubes onto skewers with the mushrooms and onion wedges.
  • In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons oil with the lemon juice and soy sauce.
  • Preheat a gas grill on high (or build a charcole fire and let burn until covered with white ash.).
  • 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.
