Beef Kebabs with Mango Tomato Salsa
The lemon brings freshness to these beef kebabs, while the mango salsa nicely complements them; a burst of flavors in the mouth!
Servings: 4
Ingredients
FOR THE KEBABS
- 1.5 pounds boneless beef sirloin
- 12 medium baby onions
- 2 medium lemons, organic
- 1 medium zucchini, green or yellow
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
FOR THE SALSA:
- 0.5 medium red onion, finely diced
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh mint, chopped
- 0.5 medium cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 medium mango
- 0.5 medium lemon juice freshly squeezed
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the salsa: Dice the tomatoes, mango, and red onion. Place in a bowl. Add the minced coriander and mint, the grated ginger, the lemon juice, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well and reserve.
- Prepare the kebabs: Cut the meat into 1 1/2 to 1 3/4-inch cube. Season with salt and pepper. Brush with olive oil.
- Wash and pat dry the zucchini and cut it in chunks of about the same size of the meat. Cut the lemons in quarters and each quarter in half (depending on the size, quarters might be small enough). Peel the small onions. Thread the meat, onions, lemon and zucchini chunks onto the skewers.
- Preheat your barbecue. Place on the grill and cook for 5 minutes. Turn and cook again for 5 minutes. Serve the kebab with the salsa.
Notes
You can use regular tomatoes instead of the cherry tomatoes. I like to use cherry tomatoes because they are usually very red and sweet.
