The flavor of the rub in this recipe is a little spicy and exotic. When paired with the cool yogurt sauce it creates an intense flavor combination. It really is a show stealer and therefore I like to keep the other dishes accompanying the meal quite simple. Rice or potatoes and a simple salad is all you need. The yogurt sauce works nicely with the beef but is also delicious with chicken, pork or lamb.

• Ingredients: 
• 1 pound steak
• 2 bell peppers, chopped
• 1 red onion, chopped
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup chili powder
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons ground cloves
• 2 teaspoons nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 tablespoon pepper
• Herbed Yogurt Sauce
• 1/2 cup onion, minced
• 1/2 cup mint, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons dill, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon lemon rind
• 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
• Salt & Pepper to taste

Directions:

Combine the ingredients for the herbed yogurt dip and set aside to allow flavours to blend. Preheat the grill to medium-high. Soak 4 wooden skewers in water while you prepare the meat. Place the meat on a cutting board and rub with olive oil. Combine the garlic and the spices together in a bowl and rub into the meat on all sides. Slice the beef into 1 inch cubes. Thread the meat and veggies on the skewer and place on the grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove from the barbecue and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Serve with Herbed Yogurt Sauce.
