Kebab Beef Skewer with Basmati Rice

Instructions

• Here’s an easy way to elevate beef kebabs with basmati rice and a delicious garnish.

  Step 1

• In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and all the spices. Add the beef cubes and toss to coat well.

  Step 2

• Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (you can also leave it overnight in the fridge for extra flavor).

  Step 3

• If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 15–30 minutes to prevent burning.

  Step 4

• Thread the marinated beef onto skewers, alternating with pieces of red onion or bell pepper.

  Step 5

• Preheat grill to medium-high and cook skewers for 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness.

  Step 6

• Prepare Mahatma® Ready to Heat Basmati Rice according to the package instructions. Fluff gently with a fork.

  Step 7

• Serve the beef kebabs hot over the fluffy basmati rice.Add a side of lemon wedges, fresh herbs, and a drizzle of yogurt or tahini sauce if desired.

  Cooking Tips:

  For a shortcut, use store-bought kebab seasoning or spice rub instead of mixing individual spices.

  Want more veggies? Serve with a quick side salad or sautéed greens.

  You can also use ground beef formed into logs or patties if you don’t have skewers—just pan-fry them like mini kebabs.
