Begin by finely mincing the garlic cloves and chopping the fresh parsley. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground beef, minced garlic, soy sauce, lemon juice, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated.
Cover the mixture and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
While the meat is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Remove the seeds from the bell peppers and cut them into bite-sized squares. Peel the red onion and cut it into similar-sized squares.
Once the meat has marinated, remove it from the refrigerator. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly coat the grill grates with cooking spray.
With wet hands, divide the beef mixture into eight equal portions. Shape each portion into a sausage-like form around a skewer. Alternate threading the beef with pieces of red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and red onion onto the skewer.
Place the kebabs on the preheated grill. Cook each side for about 3 minutes, turning frequently, until the beef is fully cooked and the vegetables are slightly charred, about 10-12 minutes in total.
Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring the kebabs remain juicy.
Serve the kebabs hot with a side of a fresh salad or whole grain pita bread for a complete meal.
