This Persian shish kabob recipe is simple but tasty. The beef is marinated in a mixture of lime juice and onion, seasoned with salt and pepper, and grilled. Serve with a Persian-style pilaf.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds beef tenderloin
  • 1 onion , chopped
  • 0.13 cups fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper

Instructions

    Cut beef into 1x1/2-inch cubes and place in a large bowl. Add onion, lime juice, salt, and black pepper; mix well. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 8 hours to overnight.

  2. 2

    Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

  3. 3

    Thread beef on skewers, 6 to 8 pieces per skewer. Discard any excess marinade.

  4. 4
