Seekh Kebab is a succulent Indian grilled meat preparation with aromatic spices and a melt-in-your-mouth texture. This high protein dish is perfect for carnivore diets and makes an impressive family appetizer.
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground lamb, finely chopped onion, cilantro, mint, minced garlic, and ginger to ensure an even blend of moisture and aromatics.
Add the ground cumin, coriander, garam masala, red chili powder, black pepper, and kosher salt. Mix thoroughly by hand, kneading until the mixture feels sticky and holds together.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the kebab mixture for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and firm the texture for easy shaping.
Wet your hands with water and divide the meat mixture into 8 equal portions. Mold each portion onto metal skewers to form even, cylindrical kebabs, ensuring uniform thickness for consistent cooking.
Preheat a grill or broiler to medium-high heat. Grill the kebabs for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and cooked through, taking care not to overcook and dry out the meat.
Rest the kebabs for 3–5 minutes before serving, which preserves juiciness and brings out the spice aromas. Serve hot as an appetizer or main.
