Ingredients
  

  • FOR THE KEBABS
  • pound ground beef or lamb
  • 2 cloves grated garlic
  • 1 tablespoon grated onion
  • ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon allspice
  • ¼ teaspoon ginger
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • 2 tablespoons bread crumbs
  • ½ teaspoon salt plus more for sprinkling
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • FOR SERVING OPTIONAL
  • Greek or other thick yogurt for dipping
  • fresh cucumbers and tomatoes
  • pita bread
  • fresh herbs for sprinkling
  • couscous or rice
  • roasted veggies

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425F and prepare a pan for roasting with parchment paper or cooking spray.
  • In a bowl, combine the beef, onion, garlic, crushed red pepper, cinnamon, allspice, ginger, salt, cumin, and bread crumbs until just combined. Combine the meat mixture into 4 small mini-loaves. Place on the prepared pan. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle the tops with a tiny bit more salt.
  • Roast the kebabs at 425F for 15-20 minutes until browned on top and just cooked through - don't overcook! Choose any accompaniments you'd like and SERVE!

Notes

  • Grate the onion and garlic directly over the meat before mixing to catch all the juices. If you don't have a microplane or other small grater, just mince them finely.
