Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams ground beef or lamb
- 1 medium-sized, finely chopped onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon coriander
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 200 grams coconut milk yogurt
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped fresh mint leaves
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef or lamb, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley, cumin, coriander, paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Take small portions of the meat mixture and shape them into small oval or round mini kebabs. Ensure they are all roughly the same size for even cooking.
Heat the coconut oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the mini kebabs to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they are well browned and cooked through.
While the kebabs are cooking, prepare the yogurt mint sauce. In a small bowl, mix the coconut milk yogurt, finely chopped mint leaves, and lemon juice. Stir until smooth and well combined.
Remove the kebabs from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes.
Serve the paleo mini kebabs with the yogurt mint sauce on the side for dipping.
