Steps

  • Blend all harissa ingredients in a food processor to form a smooth paste and set aside.
  • Heat a griddle pan and coat steak cubes in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Thread the beef and red onion wedges alternately onto metal skewers.
  • Grill skewers for 1-2 minutes per side, basting with harissa every 30 seconds.
  • Squeeze lemon juice over the cooked meat and set aside.
  • Sauté butter, oil, onion, and garlic in a pan for two minutes until softened.
  • Stir in the rice, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
  • Add chicken stock, bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 12-15 minutes until liquid is absorbed.
  • Season the rice with salt and pepper and stir in the chopped coriander.
  • Serve the skewers with the lemon rice and an extra dollop of harissa.
