Step 1
Thread beef cubes onto skewers. Toss with minced garlic, lemon juice, 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Step 2
Heat a cast iron skillet or grill pan over high heat until smoking, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Sear skewers 2 minutes per side without moving — beef should be charred on the outside, rare to medium-rare inside.
Step 4
Whisk tahini with 2 tbsp lemon juice, 2 tbsp water, 1 minced garlic clove, salt, and pepper until pourable.
Step 5
Warm rice in a saucepan or microwave, about 2 minutes. Spread on plates.
Step 6
Top rice with skewers, drizzle tahini sauce, and scatter parsley over the top.
