Grilled Caesar Kabobs Recipes

GRILLED CAESAR BEEF APPETIZER KABOBS

Steps:

• In large resealablefood-storage plastic bag, place beef, bell pepper, squash, mushrooms and tomatoes. Mix 1/2 cup dressing and the ground pepper. Pour over beef and vegetables; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate at least 1 hour but no longer than 4 hours, turning bag occasionally. Soak skewers in water about 1 hour to prevent burning.
• Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Remove beef and vegetables from marinade; discard marinade. Remove skewers from water. Thread 1 or 2 pieces beef on each skewer. Add a mushroom, squash, bell pepper piece or tomato to end of each skewer.
• Cover and grill kabobs 4 to 6 inches from medium heat 6 to 8 minutes for medium beef doneness, turning frequently.
• Arrange romaine on serving platter. Top with kabobs. Spoon additional dressing into small bowl for dipping; sprinkle with chives.

LAMB KABOBS

Steps:

• Cut the lamb into 1 to 1 1/2 -inch cubes or pieces and put them in a large bowl. Season with kosher salt and black pepper.
• In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a blade, combine the onion, garlic, spices, parsley, olive oil and lemon juice. Cover and run the processor until everything is finely chopped (you should end up with a thick onion marinade).
• Pour the onion marinade over the lamb and mix well to make sure all the lamb is well coated with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours. (If you do not have time, leave the kabobs to marinate at room temperature for about 30 minutes).
• Brush the grates of a gas grill (or an indoor griddle) with oil and heat.
• Shake excess marinade off and thread the lamb pieces on some long skewers, allowing a little room between pieces (I used 6 wooden skewers that have been soaked in water).
• Assemble the lamb kabobs in one single layer over your heated grill or griddle. Grill over high heat, turning each kabob one-quarter turn every couple minutes, until the meat is browned all over, anywhere from 7 to 9 minutes, depending on how well you like your lamb cooked (7 minutes on my grill produced medium-rare kabobs).
