Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef sirloin
- 60 ml olive oil
- 45 ml soy sauce
- 30 ml lemon juice
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 8 wooden skewers or metal skewers
Instructions
Cut the beef sirloin into 1-inch cubes, ensuring all pieces are evenly sized for uniform cooking.
In a mixing bowl, prepare the marinade by combining olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, black pepper, and salt.
Place the beef cubes into the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours for enhanced flavor.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated beef cubes onto the skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece to ensure even cooking.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the beef reaches the desired doneness (about 8-10 minutes total for medium-rare).
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
Serve the skewers hot with your choice of sides, such as rice, salad, or grilled vegetables.
