Moroccan-Style Beef Kabobs
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
- 1 lemon, grated rind and juice
- 2 tablespoons mild curry paste
- 4 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon minced gingerroot
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 lb top sirloin beef grilling steak
- 1 cup whole wheat couscous
- 1 cup red pepper
- 1/2 cup low-fat plain yogurt
- 1 cup green pepper
- Combine 1/2 cup (125 mL) water, garlic, green onions, cilantro, lemon rind and juice, curry paste, olive oil, gingerroot and salt. Remove about 1/2 cup (125 mL) and set aside.
- In large sealable freezer bag, toss beef with remaining mixture; refrigerate for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare couscous according to package directions, using 1-1/4 cups (300 mL) water; stir in 1/4 cup (50 mL) of reserved dressing. Set aside. Alternately thread beef and pepper chunks onto skewers, discarding marinade.
- Grill or broil kabobs using medium-high heat for 5 minutes per side or until medium-rare.
- Meanwhile, stir remaining reserved dressing into yogurt for dipping sauce. Serve grilled kabobs with couscous and dipping sauce.
- Tip: For the quickest fix, make this meal using store-made fresh beef kabobs, marinating the entire meat and veggie kabobs as directed in the recipe above.
