  • Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before threading the beef to prevent them from burning on the grill.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the kebabs on a stovetop grill pan or under the broiler in the oven.

Storage and Serving

  • Leftover beef kebabs can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • The pomegranate couscous can be stored separately in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
