Ingredients

• 500 grams Lean beef (preferably sirloin or tenderloin), cut into 1-inch cubes
• 120 grams Low-fat plain yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 10 pieces Wooden skewers, soaked in water

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine low-fat yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, red chili powder, salt, black pepper, and olive oil. Mix well to create the marinade.

Step 2

Add the beef cubes to the marinade and mix until all pieces are thoroughly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, allowing the flavors to infuse.

Step 3

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Step 4

Thread the marinated beef cubes onto the soaked wooden skewers, distributing them evenly.

Step 5

Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 10 minutes on each side or until the beef is cooked through and slightly charred on the outside.

Step 6

Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.

Step 7

Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot as an appetizer or with whole-grain pita and a side salad for a heart-healthy meal.
