Who doesn’t love a good kebab? All veggies, chicken, pork, or my favorite, beef — no matter which you choose (or maybe a combination of a few of them), you’re always in for a treat. I love this idea for a lime marinade for the beef that Mark Sisson of Mark’s Daily Apple showcases in this recipe. Lime juice, orange zest, basil, garlic, cumin and coconut oil sounds like an amazing combination that has me drooling as I write this. Needless to say, I know what my next BBQ is going to consist of.
The marinade for Lime and Basil Beef Kebabs is so deliciously aromatic that it’s tempting to take a sip before you pour it over the beef. Fresh lime juice, orange zest and basil are blended together with garlic, cumin and coconut oil for a zesty flavor combination that intensifies over an open flame. The lime and cumin dominate in the end, with hints of the basil and orange sneaking in.
Add chunks of bell peppers and onion to the skewers and you’ll have a balanced meal cooking together on one stick. The beef will be charred on the outside and medium-rare in the middle, and the veggies will be seared by the heat but still crisp and fresh.
