Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat beef dry with paper towels. Toss with salt, pepper, cumin, and sumac until well coated.

  2. Step 2

    Thread beef onto two metal skewers, leaving 1/4-inch gaps between pieces. Set aside.

  3. Step 3

    Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Add fries in a single layer, stirring every 2 minutes, until golden and tender, ~12 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

  4. Step 4

    Add 1 tbsp oil to the same skillet. Sear kebabs 2–3 minutes per side without moving until charred at edges.

  5. Step 5

    Whisk tahini, lemon juice, 3 tbsp water, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until smooth and drizzle-able.

  6. Step 6

    Slide kebabs onto plates beside fries. Drizzle tahini sauce over kebabs and garnish with parsley.
