## Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine steak, oregano, red pepper flakes, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 2 1/2 teaspoons garlic, and 1 teaspoon salt.
2. Cover and let the steak marinate at room temperature for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours, or refrigerate up to 4 hours.
3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon garlic; season with a large pinch of salt.
4. Let the lemon juice and garlic mixture sit for about 20 minutes.
5. Add tahini, honey, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and 3 tablespoons water to the dressing mixture.
6. Vigorously whisk the dressing, adding more water as needed, until smooth and easily pourable; season with salt and black pepper.
7. Set the dressing aside.
8. In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil.
9. Add orzo and cook, stirring, until golden, 3 to 5 minutes.
10. Add broth and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low.
11. Simmer the orzo, stirring occasionally and adding more broth 1/4 cup at a time if needed, until broth is absorbed and orzo is tender, 8 to 10 minutes; season with salt and black pepper.
12. Cover the orzo to keep it warm.
13. Prepare a grill for high heat; preheat for 5 minutes.
14. Brush grates with neutral oil.
15. Thread 8 skewers with steak, onion, bell pepper, and tomatoes, alternating with 3 to 4 steak cubes per skewer.
16. Drizzle kebabs with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil; season with salt and black pepper.
17. Grill skewers, turning occasionally, until vegetables are tender and meat is cooked to desired degree of doneness, 8 to 15 minutes total.
18. Transfer kebabs to a plate.
19. In a large bowl, toss cucumbers and spinach with half of the reserved dressing.
20. Stir chives into the orzo mixture.
21. Divide salad and orzo among bowls; top with kebabs.
22. Drizzle the remaining dressing over the bowls.

## Equipment

- large bowl
- small bowl
- whisk
- medium skillet
- grill
- 8 skewers

## Tips

- If using wooden skewers, be sure to soak them in water for 15 to 30 minutes before cooking so that they don	 burn on the grill; metal skewers do not need to be soaked.
- When making the dressing, don	 be alarmed if the tahini seizes and becomes grainy at first; just keep whisking and adding small splashes of water and you	ll reach a creamy consistency in no time.
