Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g chicken breast
- 500 g lean beef steak
- 60 ml balsamic vinegar
- 60 ml olive oil
- 50 ml soy sauce
- 4 pieces garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 large onion
- 2 medium bell peppers
- 200 g mushrooms
- 12 pieces wooden skewers
Instructions
Begin by soaking the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning during grilling.
Cut the chicken breast and lean beef steak into 2-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, combine balsamic vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper to make the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the meat cubes, ensuring that all pieces are well-coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for more intense flavor.
While the meat is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Peel and cut the onion into 2-inch pieces. Core and seed the bell peppers, then cut them into 2-inch chunks. Clean the mushrooms and leave them whole or halve them if they are large.
Once the meat has marinated, thread the meat and vegetables onto the soaked skewers, alternating between different ingredients for a colorful display.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Once heated, place the skewers on the grill and cook for approximately 8-10 minutes per side, or until the meat is cooked through and has a nice char.
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Serve the savory skewers hot, pairing them with a side salad or grilled vegetables for a complete high-protein meal.
