Harissa and Yoghurt Beef Skewers
Inspired by techniques from NYT Cooking, America's Test Kitchen and Serious Eats.
These beef skewers follow the same hot-and-fast grilling method as a classic kebab, but the beef is marinated in a homemade harissa paste loosened with Greek yoghurt instead of a lemon-oregano marinade, then served meat-only with the remaining harissa as a dip.
