Preparation Time15 min
Cooking Time10 min
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground lean beef or lamb
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 1 medium onion, grated
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well. Let stand 1 hour to blend flavors.
- Preheat oven to broil or prepare hot coals on barbecue grill.
- Using about 1/4 cup mixture for each kebab, mold into a sausage shape around flat metal skewers. Moistening your hands will help mold the meat mixture onto skewers.
- Taper ends of sausage shapes to prevent meat from slipping off skewers during cooking. Place skewers on broiler rack 4 inches from heat source on grill or over hot coals. Turn frequently to brown evenly until meat is done as desired, 10 to 15 minutes.
