Shish Kebab
Shish Kebab is a delicious and popular Middle Eastern dish that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is made with succulent pieces of marinated meat, grilled to perfection on skewers. The key to making the perfect Shish Kebab is in the marinade, which infuses the meat with flavor and tenderness.
To make Shish Kebab, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 pound of beef or lamb, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 green bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Wooden skewers, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes
To prepare the marinade, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Add the meat to the marinade and toss to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
When you are ready to cook the Shish Kebab, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Thread the meat, onion, and bell peppers onto the skewers, alternating between the ingredients. Grill the skewers for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat is cooked to your desired level of doneness.
