Beef and Red Onion Kabobs with Hummus
Yield: 4 Servings
NY strip steak, cut into 2-inch cubes 2 pounds
Small red onion, cut into eighths 2 each
Ground cumin 1 Tablespoon
Olive oil 5 Tablespoons
Hummus
Chick peas, drained 14 oz can
Garlic, peeled and sliced 1 clove
Lemon juice 1 lemon
Olive oil 1/3 cup
Salt to taste
Method:
1. Place the cubes of beef in a large bowl and toss with 4 tablespoons of olive oil. Sprinkle the cumin over the beef and mix to coat the cubes thoroughly. Let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes or overnight in the refrigerator.
2. Remove the meat from the marinade and thread the cubes onto skewers, alternating meat cubes with wedges of onion – 4 to a skewer.
3. Brush the kabobs lightly with the remaining tablespoon of oil and grill on the grill pan, turning occasionally until they are nicely browned, about 10-20 minutes.
4. To make the hummus, combine all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Serve at room temperature with the kabobs.
