Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef sirloin, cubed
- 1 medium red bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 medium green bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 large red onion, cut into wedges
- 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 8 pieces wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the low sodium soy sauce, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, and ground black pepper to prepare the marinade.
Add the cubed beef sirloin to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to penetrate the meat.
While the beef is marinating, prepare the vegetables by cutting the red and green bell peppers into chunks and the red onion into wedges.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated beef cubes onto the soaked wooden skewers, alternating with pieces of bell pepper and onion.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness and the vegetables are charred and tender.
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
Sprinkle the skewers with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Serve the Low Sodium Beef Shashlik with your choice of side, such as a fresh salad or warm flatbread.
