Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Beef sirloin (cubed)
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 1.5 tsp Ground cumin
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 1 large Red onion (cut into chunks)
- 2 medium Bell peppers (cut into chunks)
- 6 Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine honey, ground cumin, paprika, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended to make the marinade.
Add the cubed beef to the bowl with the marinade. Toss to coat the beef evenly, then cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours for best flavor.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes prior to grilling to prevent them from burning.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated beef cubes onto skewers, alternating with chunks of red onion and bell pepper for added flavor and color.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning every 2-3 minutes to cook all sides evenly. Ensure the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness.
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the Honey Cumin Beef Kebabs immediately with your choice of side dishes, such as rice, salad, or flatbread.
