How To Make moroccan-style beef brochettes

  • 1
    Combine 1/2 cup water, garlic, green onions, cilantro, lemon rind and juice, curry paste, olive oil, gingerroot and salt. Remove about 1/2 cup and set aside. In large sealable freezer bag, toss beef with remaining mixture; refrigerate for 15 minutes.

    Meanwhile, prepare couscous according to package directions, using 1-1/4 cups water; stir in 1/4 cup of the reserved dressing. Set aside. Alternately thread beef, pepper chunks, and onions onto skewers, discarding marinade.

    Grill or broil brochettes using medium-high heat for 5 minutes per side or until medium-rare. Meanwhile, stir remaining reserved dressing into yogurt for dipping sauce. Serve grilled brochettes with couscous and dipping sauce.
