Marinate beef in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, turmeric, black pepper, and salt for at least 1 hour.

Chop onions, bell peppers, and tomatoes into bite-sized pieces.

Soak skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.

Thread marinated beef, onions, bell peppers, and tomatoes onto skewers alternately.

Preheat grill to medium-high heat.

Place skewers on the grill and cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until beef is cooked through and slightly charred.

Remove skewers from grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving.

Garnish with fresh herbs and serve with rice or flatbread.
