Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound beef sirloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 medium lemon, juiced
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly cracked
- 1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 medium zucchini, sliced into thick rounds
- 1 medium white onion, cut into wedges
- 8 wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
In a large mixing bowl, combine minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, parsley, lemon juice, olive oil, and black pepper. Mix well to make the marinade.
Add the cubed beef sirloin to the marinade and toss until all pieces are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Alternate threading the marinated beef cubes, red bell pepper pieces, zucchini rounds, and onion wedges onto the skewers.
Once the grill is hot, place the assembled skewers on the grates. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until the beef reaches your desired doneness.
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the skewers warm, garnished with additional chopped parsley if desired.
