Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoon hot sauce
  • 3 pounds bottom round steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped in large chucks slightly large than beef cubes
  • 8 bamboo skewers, soaked in water for about 20 minutes
  • Spicy Couscous, recipe follows

Directions

In a large bowl whisk together canola oil, garlic, yogurt, cumin, salt, pepper and hot sauce. Reserve half the marinade, in a covered bowl, and refrigerate. Add beef cubes to remaining marinade, cover and refrigerate for anywhere from 30 minutes to overnight.

Preheat grill pan or outdoor grill to medium high heat. Be sure to oil the grill surface before grilling the kebabs.

Thread beef cubes and onion pieces onto skewers, alternating 3 pieces of beef and onion per skewer. Set aside extra beef cubes for Round 2 recipe. Place skewers on the grill pan and cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare.

Place kebabs on a serving platter along with Spicy Couscous. Drizzle with some of the reserved marinade and serve.

Use the leftovers from this recipe to make Round 2 Recipes -Beef Kebob Pita Pockets.

Spicy Couscous:

  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 (10-ounce) box couscous
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Saute garlic with red pepper flakes for 2 minutes being careful not to burn garlic. Add the chicken broth, turn up heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Stir in couscous, cover and remove from the heat. Let stand 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and fluff with fork. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve.

    This was a fast and easy meal. I made it yesterday for dinner and We all loved it. The key to this cut of meat is not to over cook it or else ,as others stated, it will become tough. I truly loved this marinade. I had never used yogurt this way and will do so with other cuts of meat as it is FANTASTIC. As for the couscous, I also added a chopped onion with the garlic and will definitely cut back of the red pepper flakes next time because it was just a little too spicy for us. As Sandra always says "a recipe is just an idea, the base, they can be altered in any way to make them your own." The entire meal was Marvelous and I will be making it again and again. Can't wait for round 2, which i ame sure is going to be Magnificent!

    This is the first recipe I tried from Sandra Lee. I was a little hesitant about making this meal. I have to say, my ENTIRE family loved it which is amazing! Sandra is obviously a magician!! My husband and I have three daughters with three very different palettes and they all loved the meal. I cheated on the amounts and saved a little extra meat for the round two recipe (to make for dinner for 5 instead of lunch for 2. Everybody loved the pitas as much as they loved the kebabs! BRILLIANT!! I am so tired of wasted food and am thrilled to find Sandra's money saving recipes with the added bonus of being able to turn the leftovers into another meal. I have her bacon and mushroom quiche in the oven right now. Will let you know how that one goes!
