These meatball kebabs are great by themselves or as a filling for a fantastic
meatball sandwich. If using these kebabs as a filling, just add some provolone cheese and marinara sauce, and you'll have a great sandwich.
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 large onion, cut into 1 inch chunks
- 1 large red or yellow bell pepper, cut into 1 inch chunks
- 1/2 cup dried bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons dried parsley
- 1 tablespoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 eggs
Preparation:
Preheat grill for medium-high heat. If using wood skewers, make sure they have been pre-soaked for at least one hour before placing on the grill. Combine bread crumbs and milk in a small bowl. Let mixture sit for 5 minutes then squeeze out milk from bred crumbs. Combine beef, cheese, garlic, herbs, salt, pepper, and eggs in a large bowl. Add bread crumbs and blend well. Shape ground beef mixture into 16-18 meatballs, about 1 1/2 inches around. Skewer one meatball at a time alternating with pieces of onion and bell pepper. Place kebabs on a lightly oiled grill grate and allow to cook for 10 minutes, rotating every 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and serve.
