Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb (450g) ground beef (80/20 lean to fat ratio)
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs (or ground oats/almond flour for gluten-free)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (for brushing)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Beef Mixture: In a large bowl, combine ground beef, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, fresh parsley, ground cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, and breadcrumbs. Mix gently but thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Avoid overmixing to maintain a tender texture.
  2. Shape Your Kababs: Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each into long, uniform kababs on skewers or form small oval patties if preferred. Ensure they are shaped firmly but not tightly compacted.
  3. Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven heats, lightly brush each kabab with olive oil to enhance moisture and promote golden browning.
  4. Bake the Kababs: Arrange the kababs on a baking tray lined with parchment paper or on a lightly greased wire rack. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning and juiciness.
  5. Rest and Serve: Remove kababs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes to allow juices to redistribute. Serve warm with your favorite sides such as rice pilaf, pita bread, or fresh salads.

Notes

  • Use fresh herbs and quality ground beef for the best flavor.
  • Do not overmix the beef mixture to avoid dense kababs.
  • Shape kababs evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
  • Bake kababs on a wire rack to allow even heat circulation and prevent sogginess.
  • Let kababs rest after baking to retain their juicy texture.
