Ingredients
-
8 cloves garlic, divided
-
½ cup lemon juice plus 7 tablespoons, divided
-
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon canola oil, divided
-
1 ¾ teaspoons kosher salt, divided
-
½ teaspoon ground allspice
-
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
¼ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
-
2 pounds sirloin steak, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
-
½ cup tahini
-
3 tablespoons water
-
2 large onions, cut into 8 wedges each
Directions
-
Crush 6 cloves garlic and combine with 1/2 cup lemon juice, 1/4 cup oil, 1 teaspoon salt, allspice, cinnamon and pepper in a medium bowl. Place beef in a large sealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 1 day.
-
Meanwhile, mince the remaining 2 garlic cloves. Mash garlic and the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl using the back of a spoon until a paste forms. Whisk in tahini, the remaining 7 tablespoons lemon juice and water. Set aside.
-
Preheat grill to high.
-
Remove the beef from the bag. (Discard the marinade.) Brush onions with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Divide the beef among 6 skewers and the onions among the remaining 3 skewers. Grill the onions until charred and tender, 10 to 12 minutes per side. Grill the beef, turning once or twice, until slightly charred but still pink in the middle, about 6 minutes. Serve with tahini sauce.
Make ahead
Prepare through Step 1 and refrigerate for up to 1 day. Cover and refrigerate tahini sauce for up to 5 days.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
