Lemon-Soy Beef Kebabs With Pearl Couscous
- 1 lemon
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- 1 teaspoon pepper, divided
- 1 1/2 pounds beef sirloin steak, cut into 1 1/2-in. cubes
- 1 cup pearl couscous
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 medium tomatoes, coarsely chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
- 1/3 cup chopped red onion
- 1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
- Zest and juice lemon. Reserve zest, chilled, for couscous. Combine 3 tbsp. lemon juice (save extra for other uses) with the vegetable oil, garlic, soy sauce, and 1/2 tsp. each salt and pepper in a large resealable plastic bag. Add beef, seal bag, and chill at least 30 minutes and up to 24 hours.
- Heat a grill to high (450u0b0 to 550u0b0). Thread beef onto 8 soaked wooden skewers and discard marinade.
- Prepare couscous according to package instructions. In a large bowl, combine couscous with reserved lemon zest, remaining 1/2 tsp. each salt and pepper, the olive oil, tomatoes, red onion, and parsley. Chill if you like or serve at room temperature.
- Grill beef, turning once or twice, until grill marks appear and meat is done the way you like (cut to test), about 8 minutes total for medium-rare. Serve beef with couscous.
