Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams kangaroo loin fillets
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 red onion, cut into chunks
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 zucchini, sliced into thick rounds
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 wooden skewers (soaked in water for 30 minutes)
Instructions
Cut the kangaroo loin fillets into bite-sized cubes (about 2.5 cm or 1 inch).
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, smoked paprika, ground cumin, honey, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Add the kangaroo cubes to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more intense flavor).
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated kangaroo cubes onto the soaked wooden skewers, alternating with chunks of red onion, bell peppers, and zucchini slices.
Grill the kebabs for 8-10 minutes, turning them occasionally to cook evenly on all sides. The kangaroo should be cooked medium-rare for optimal tenderness and flavor, but adjust for your preference.
Once cooked, remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve the kangaroo kebabs with your choice of side dishes, such as a fresh salad or warm flatbread, and enjoy!
