Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Beef sirloin
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Red chili flakes
- 4 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
- 6 pieces Skewers
Instructions
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
Cut the beef sirloin into bite-sized cubes, approximately 1-inch in size, and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Add garlic to the mixing bowl with the beef.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, lime juice, olive oil, red chili flakes, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the beef pieces and toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for maximum flavor infusion.
Once marinated, thread the beef pieces onto the skewers, dividing them evenly.
Preheat a grill or broiler to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates or broiler rack to prevent sticking.
Grill or broil the beef skewers for 2-3 minutes per side, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking and charring, until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness.
Remove the skewers from the heat and let them rest for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce or side dishes like rice, salad, or grilled vegetables.
