A twist on tradition, these kebabs feature ground beef that's been seasoned with onion, mint, garlic, cumin and paprika. To counter the spice, serve them with a cooling tabbouleh full of cucumber, mint and tomato.
Ingredients
- 1 c. water
- 3/4 c. whole-wheat couscous
- 1 medium tomato
- 1/2 large seedless cucumber
- 4 scallions
- 1/4 c. Chopped mint
- 3 tbsp. lemon juice
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 1/4 tsp. salt
Instructions
- Heat broiler. Heat water in small saucepan and prepare couscous as box directs; let cool. Toss with remaining tabbouleh ingredients in large bowl.
- Mix all ingredients in medium bowl until well blended. Divide mixture into 8 equal portions (about 1 ⁄4 cup each). With hands, form each into a long sausage-like shape, about 1 in. thick, around each skewer.
- Place skewers on broiler pan; broil 8 to 10 minutes, turning once. Serve with tabbouleh and red onions.
