Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb sirloin steak
- 8 oz halloumi cheese
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 medium zucchini
- 1 medium red onion
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 8 wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
Cut the sirloin steak into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
Cut the halloumi cheese into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
Chop the red bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion into bite-sized pieces that can be skewered easily.
In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Add the steak cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours for more flavor).
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated steak, halloumi cubes, and vegetables onto the skewers, alternating ingredients to create a colorful pattern.
Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the steak is cooked to your desired level of doneness and grill marks appear on the halloumi and vegetables.
Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for 2–3 minutes before serving.
Serve the kabobs warm with optional sides like a green salad, pita bread, or couscous.
