Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds Beef sirloin
- 0.25 cups Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh oregano, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 1 large Red onion
- 2 Bell peppers (any color)
- 16 Cherry tomatoes
- 8 Wooden skewers or metal skewers
Instructions
Cut the beef sirloin into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, fresh oregano, fresh parsley, red wine vinegar, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and ground black pepper to create the marinade.
Add the beef cubes to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
Meanwhile, prepare the vegetables: cut the red onion into chunks, slice the bell peppers into 1-inch squares, and have the cherry tomatoes ready.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C).
Assemble the kabobs by threading the marinated beef, red onion, bell peppers, and cherry tomatoes onto the skewers, alternating as desired.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning every few minutes to ensure even cooking. The beef should be charred on the outside and cooked to your desired level of doneness (internal temperature of 135°F for medium-rare or 145°F for medium).
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the Greek beef kabobs with warm pita, tzatziki sauce, and a side of Greek salad for a complete meal.
