Perfectly shaped onto skewers and brushed with olive oil, these kebabs are grilled to juicy perfection, boasting a delicious charred exterior. Ready in under an hour and ideal for serving alongside flatbread, grilled vegetables, or a crisp salad, this recipe offers a satisfying, soy-free way to enjoy one of Turkey’s most cherished dishes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground lamb and beef. Mix them well using your hands to ensure even distribution.
Add the finely diced red bell pepper, red onion, and minced garlic to the meat mixture. Mix until well combined.
Stir in the chopped parsley, paprika, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure the spices are evenly incorporated into the meat.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least one hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
While the grill is heating, divide the meat mixture into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a long sausage shape around skewers, pressing firmly to ensure the meat adheres well.
Brush each skewer with olive oil to prevent sticking and ensure even grilling.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, rotating occasionally until the meat is cooked through and has a nice char on the outside.
Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve with flatbread, grilled vegetables, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
