Beef Kebabs:
- 2 pounds lean ground beef
- 1 yellow onion, minced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
To Serve:
- 8 pitas
- 2 tomatoes, thinly sliced
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup fresh parsley, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup garlic tahini sauce (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it with olive oil.
- In a large bowl, add the ground beef, minced onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley, paprika, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Using your hands, mix until well combined.
- Transfer the meat mixture to the lined baking sheet and, using your hands, gently press and spread it across the entire pan into a rectangle shape roughly 1/2-inch thick.
- Using a butter knife or bench scraper, slice the kebab mixture widthwise on the baking sheet into 8 evenly sized strips.
- Transfer the baking sheet to the oven to bake for 10 minutes or until the meat is fully cooked. If you want a crispy finish, turn the oven to broil for the final 2-3 minutes.
- Once cooked, remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the beef to rest for 5 minutes. Then use a sharp knife or spatula to completely separate the beef kebab strips.
- To serve, fill a warm pita with beef kebab, tomato, red onion, parsley, and tahini sauce.
- Any leftover beef kebabs can be cooled and stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
