Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a bowl, mix the 1 lb ground beef with 1/2 finely grated onion, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper until just combined. Shape into 8 oval patties around skewers.

  2. Step 2

    Cook the 1 cup white rice according to package directions; keep warm.

  3. Step 3

    Preheat grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread the beef patties onto skewers if not already.

  4. Step 4

    Grill the skewers for 4-5 minutes per side, until browned and cooked through (internal temp 160°F).

  5. Step 5

    While meat cooks, cut the 1 green bell pepper into wide strips and the 2 tomatoes in half. Grill alongside the skewers for 3-4 minutes, until charred and softened.

  6. Step 6

    Serve the skewers over the rice with grilled vegetables, 4 pickle spears, and pickled red onions on the side.

  7. Step 7

    Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
