Marinade/Beef
In a medium bowl whisk together, all marinade ingredients.
Place beef and half of the marinade in a large resealable plastic bag; seal bag and turn to coat. Place vegetables and remaining marinade in a large
resealable plastic bag; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate both at least 4 hours or overnight.
Preheat grill to medium high. On metal or soaked wooden skewers, thread vegetables and beef alternating different vegetables. Discard marinade.
Grill, covered, over medium heat until vegetables are tender and beef reaches desired doneness, 10-13 minutes, turning occasionally.

Couscous
Bring water, salt, and olive oil to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add couscous and stir. Turn off the heat and cover, allow to sit off heat for 5 minutes.
Remove cover and fluff couscous with a fork and allow to cool. Combine couscous, tomatoes, cucumber, garbanzo beans, red onion, olives, cheese, and
herbs in a medium bowl. Whisk together lemon zest, lemon juice, vinegar, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil and whisk.
Pour dressing over the couscous salad, stir to combine.
