Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Ground lamb
- 250 g Ground beef
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 1 medium Onion
- 3 Garlic cloves
- 1 tbsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp Ground cumin
- 1 tsp Sea salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 6 Wood or metal skewers
Instructions
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Finely chop the red bell pepper and onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb and beef. Add the chopped red bell pepper, onion, and minced garlic.
Add the paprika, cayenne pepper, ground cumin, sea salt, and black pepper to the meat mixture. Mix well using your hands until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Divide the meat mixture into six equal portions. With damp hands, mold each portion around a skewer to form a long, thin kebab shape, ensuring the meat is evenly distributed along the skewer.
Brush the kebabs lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking and add a nice crust.
Place the skewers on the hot grill. Cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the meat is cooked through and slightly charred on the edges.
Once cooked, remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the Paleo Adana Kebabs with your choice of sides such as a fresh salad or grilled vegetables.
