Time 2h44m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ½ pounds bison skirt steak
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice
3 teaspoons finely shredded lemon zest
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon black pepper
25 to 30 6- to 8-inch skewers*
2 cups plain Greek yogurt
1 cup peeled, seeded, and diced cucumber
2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Cut bison skirt steak across the grain into 1-inch wide strips. Place bison strips in a resealable plastic bag set in a shallow bowl.
  • For marinade, combine oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, the 3 cloves garlic, the 1 teaspoon salt, the oregano, and the 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Pour marinade over bison strips. Seal bag; turn to coat bison strips. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours, turning bag occasionally.
  • Drain bison strips; discard marinade. Thread bison strips accordion-style onto skewers, trimming as necessary.
  • For a charcoal or gas grill, place bison skewers on the rack of a covered grill directly over medium heat. Grill for 4 to 6 minutes, turning once halfway through grilling. (Or place skewers on the unheated rack of a broiler pan. Broil for 3 to 4 inches from the heat for 5 to 7 minutes, turning once.) Serve with Yogurt-Cucumber Sauce.
  • Yogurt-Cucumber Sauce: Combine yogurt, cucumber, green onion, the 2 cloves minced garlic, the 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Cover and chill until ready to serve.
