I originally made this with chicken Indian Chicken Kebab Rolls on a Stick but I wanted to try it with beef. This recipe was delicious and I served with with Mint & Cilantro Chutney. They are best made on an outdoor BBQ but you could certainly make them on an indoor grill pan or even broil them in the oven. If you want to see how I made my Ground Beef Kebabs with Mint and Cilantro Chutney, keep reading.

2 cups fresh cilantro
1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1/2 small onion
1/4 cup water
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper

Directions for kebabs
Combine all ingredients except the Mint & Cilantro Chutney. Mix well to combine. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours so the flavors can meld together.
When ready to make, form ground beef into meatballs and then shape into oval shapes as in the above picture. Slide skewers into the kebabs. 2 per skewer. Grill on high heat covered for 1-2 minutes per side to sear meat. Lower heat to medium low and open cover. Continue to grill for another 5-7 minutes, until done. If you want them more well done, leave on for another minute or two. Serve with the Mint & Cilantro Chutney.
Enjoy!
