Cut the chicken breast and beef sirloin into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix the olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground black pepper, smoked paprika, and onion powder to form the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the cubed meat and mix thoroughly to ensure all the pieces are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 4 hours for a deeper flavor.
While the meat is marinating, soak wooden skewers in water for about 20 minutes to prevent burning on the grill, or prepare metal skewers.
Cut the bell peppers and the red onion into 1-inch pieces to complement the meat on the skewers.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated meat, bell pepper pieces, and onion onto the skewers, alternating between meat and vegetables.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat is fully cooked and has slight grill marks. Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and beef to your preferred doneness.
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve hot and enjoy your low carb savory grilled meat skewers!
