Grilled Meat Kebabs with Sweet Potato Mash and Pickled Vegetables

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef
• 2 medium sweet potatoes
• ½ cup pickled green peppers
• ¼ cup cilantro
• ½ cup white cheese (like queso fresco)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

1. 1

   Peel and chop the 2 sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Place in a pot, cover with water, and boil until fork-tender, about 15 minutes.

2. 2

   While potatoes cook, season the 1 lb ground beef with 0.5 tsp salt and 0.25 tsp black pepper. Form into 4 oval patties.

3. 3

   Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a grill pan or skillet over medium-high. Cook the patties until browned and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side.

4. 4

   Drain the sweet potatoes and return to the pot. Add 1 tbsp olive oil, 0.5 tsp salt, and 0.25 tsp black pepper. Mash until smooth.

5. 5

   Divide the mash between 2 plates. Top with the grilled patties, 0.5 cup pickled green peppers, 0.25 cup cilantro, and 0.5 cup crumbled white cheese. Serve warm.

6. 6

   Optional: add a squeeze of lime or a dash of cumin to the mash for extra flavor.
