Number Of Ingredients 10

200g waxy potatoes , such as Charlotte, peeled and cut into 24 x 2cm/3/4in chunks
1 tbsp mild olive oil or sunflower oil
2 tsp finely chopped fresh rosemary or 1/2 tsp dried rosemary
1 large red pepper , deseeded and cut into 24 x 2cm/3/4in chunks

Categories     Pork

Time 20m

Yield 8 tapas

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons chopped onions
4 large garlic cloves, chopped
1 tablespoon spanish sweet smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon spanish hot smoked paprika or 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
coarse salt (kosher or sea)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 bay leaf, crumbled
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar (good quality)
2 tablespoons dry white wine (optional)
3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for brushing the kebabs
1 1/2 lbs chicken breasts or 1 1/2 lbs prawns

Steps:

  • Place the onion, garlic, sweet and hot paprikas, 2 tsp of the salt, the oregano, peppercorns, thyme, cumin, cinnamon, bay leaf, vinegar, wine (if using) and olive oil in a mini food processor and process to a paste.
  • Place the pork in a bowl and rub a little salt on it. Scrape the marinade into the bowl with the meat and toss to combine thoroughly.
  • Cover the bowl and refrigerate the pork for 4-6 hours, tossing a few times. Let the meat come to room temperature before grilling.
  • Light the grill and preheat it to medium-high or preheat a large ridged grill pan to medium-high over medium heat.
  • When ready to cook, thread the meat onto the skewers and brush it with a little olive oil.
  • Cook the meat, brushing with olive oil and turning once, until it is just cooked through, 5-7 minutes. (If you are cooking lamb and would like it medium-rare, don't cook it quite so long). Serve the kebabs at once.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cut beef kabob meat. If you prefer to cut your own, choose a tender cut of beef, such as flank steak or sirloin.
  • If you don't have wooden skewers, you can use metal skewers. Just be sure to soak them in water for 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning.
  • If you want your kabobs to have a smoky flavor, grill them over charcoal or wood chips.
  • Serve your kabobs with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tzatziki sauce, salsa, or chimichurri sauce.

Conclusion:

Spanish tapas-style beef kebabs are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or gatherings and can be cooked on the grill, in the oven, or even in a skillet. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that will impress your guests.
