Succulent beef kebabs marinated in a blend of spices, grilled to perfection, and served alongside smooth, creamy hummus. This dish offers a delightful combination of smoky, savory flavors with a rich, nutty dip.

Steps

In a bowl, combine olive oil, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Add beef cubes to the marinade and toss well. Let it marinate for at least 20 minutes.
Preheat grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread marinated beef pieces onto the soaked wooden skewers.
Grill kebabs for 3-4 minutes on each side until desired doneness is reached.
Warm the hummus slightly in a bowl.
Serve the beef kebabs with a dollop of hummus, a squeeze of lemon, and a sprinkle of fresh parsley if desired.

Tips for Beef Kebabs with Creamy Hummus

Evenly sized beef cubes cook more consistently; leave a little space between them so the grill can brown their sides.
Look for browned, lightly charred edges and a juicy center; crowded skewers or a cool grill can leave the beef pale.
Use separate plates and utensils for raw and cooked beef, and rest the kebabs briefly before serving to keep juices from running out.

Drink pairing

A medium-bodied red like a Rioja
Its savory fruit and gentle structure suit the smoky spiced beef without overwhelming the creamy hummus.

0% option: Sparkling water with lemon

Storage

Refrigerate cooked beef and hummus separately within 2 hours, covered, and use within 3–4 days. Reheat the beef until steaming hot; serve the hummus cold or gently warmed.

Frequently asked questions

How can I tell when the kebabs are done?

Check a larger cube by cutting into its center; cook to your preferred doneness, allowing extra time if the pieces are larger than the recipe suggests.

Can I prepare the kebabs ahead?

You can marinate the beef in the refrigerator ahead of grilling. Keep it covered and separate from ready-to-eat foods, and thread it onto skewers shortly before cooking.

What can I serve with the kebabs?

A crisp cucumber-and-tomato salad or warm flatbread complements the smoky beef and creamy hummus.
