Ingredients

2 lbs. ground beef leaner is better
1 onion white, medium size, roughly chopped
1/2 c. bread crumbs GF
1 c. parsley flat leaf
1 c. cilantro
4 garlic cloves (or more, to your liking)
1/2 c. mint leaves
2 t. sea salt
1 t. cumin
1 t. oregano
1 t. sumac (it's ok without it, if you can't find)
wooden skewers soak in water for an hour or so before grilling
  1. Preheat grill to medium high heat and brush grill grates with oil.
  2. In a food processor, add parsley, cilantro, mint, garlic and onion.  Pulse until finely chopped.  Drain liquid.
  3. Add spices, herbs and beef to a bowl and combine. Don’t overdo on the mixing.
  4. Form into 1.5” meat balls and add 2-3 per skewer.
  5. Grill for 8-10 minutes turning the skewer every few minutes for grill marks.

The meat is now tired.  Let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve with cilantro lime rice, marinated mushrooms and asparagus, picked red onions and a grand jug of red wine.
