Greek Kebab with Pilaf & more: Dinner in 60 Minutes!

Printable Recipe:
Ingredients
For the Kebabs:
2 pounds ground beef or lamb
1 large onion
2 garlic cloves
1 bunch of parsley, stems removed
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
For the Veggies:
3-4 Roma tomatoes or any larger tomatoes
2 bell peppers
Instructions
Place the garlic cloves in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped.
Cut the onion into quarters or smaller and add to the food processor. Pulse until finely chopped but not pureed.
Place the ground meat in a large mixing bowl and add the onion and garlic mixture to it.
Add the parsley leaves to the food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add the parsley to the meat.
Add all of the remaining ingredients to the mat and knead it to incorporate.
The kebabs can be made straight away or the meat can be covered with plastic wrap and refrigerated for a few hours or overnight so that the flavors can marry.
Divide the meat into 12 portions and roll each portion into a kebab.
The kebabs can be cooked on a hot barbeque grill or in a cast-iron skillet.
Warm the skillet over medium-high heat and add 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil to it.
Pan-fry the kebabs in a few batches (4-5 at a time) about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the cooked kebabs onto a serving platter.
Prepare the vegetables.
Cut the tomatoes into quarters. Alternatively, leave them whole if cooking them on a barbeque grill.
Slice the bell peppers into cubes or big chunks and discard the seeds.
Add the veggies to the cast-iron skillet. Cook them over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes on each side or until they begin to soften.
Serve the kebabs and grilled veggies with Mediterranean Rice Pilaf, quick pickled red onions, and toasted pita/naan bread.
