Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds beef sirloin or ribeye, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • Juice of 1 large lemon (about 3 tablespoons)
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
  • 8 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced (optional)
  • Fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh dill or parsley, finely chopped (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the marinade by whisking together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.
  2. Add beef cubes to the marinade, toss gently to coat, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours.
  3. Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  4. Make the whipped feta dip by combining crumbled feta, Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, and minced garlic in a food processor; pulse until smooth and creamy. Season with black pepper and garnish with dill or parsley if desired. Refrigerate until serving.
  5. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Thread marinated beef cubes onto soaked skewers, leaving space between pieces.
  6. Grill kabobs for 3-4 minutes per side until nicely charred and cooked to medium-rare or medium.
  7. Remove kabobs from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving with whipped feta dip.

Notes

Do not marinate beef longer than 2 hours to avoid mushy texture. Soak wooden skewers for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning. Rest kabobs after grilling for juicy results. Whipped feta dip can be made ahead and tastes better after chilling. For dairy-free dip, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt and use plant-based feta.
