I had a pound of ground grass fed beef thawed in the fridge, but I wasn’t sure what I was gonna do with it. I didn’t want to make Mexican seasoned ground beef AGAIN, and I didn’t want to make anything as involved as kofta kebabs. I was craving something kebab-y but easy. So I came up with these Tabil seasoned broiled mini patties.
Serves 4
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 pound ground meat (I used grass fed beef)
- 3 large shallots, coarsely chopped
- 6 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon tabil seasoning
- 2/3 tablespoon kosher salt
Method:
Preheat your broiler and make sure the top rack is about 5 inches from the heating element.
Next, line a baking sheet with heavy duty aluminum foil and grease well with coconut oil (or just line with parchment paper).
Place the ground meat in a medium sized bowl.
Blitz the shallots in your food processor.
Add the shallots, minced garlic, Tabil seasoning, and salt to the ground meat. Use your hands to mix everything well.
Form meat into patties, making sure they’re less than an inch thick.
Place patties on baking sheet and stick under the broiler. Broil on one side for 4 minutes, then flip over and broil for another 2 minutes or cooked through. I have a super hot broiler so yours might take a little longer. Plus, it makes your whole kitchen smoke up so keep your windows open!
I served the patties with some Dukka seasoned mushrooms sautéed in butter, leftover braised cabbage, and a dollop of lebneh.
Tasty and easy. I may never make real kebabs again.
