Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Beef sirloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 medium Onion, finely grated
- 2 Bell peppers, cut into 1-inch squares
- 15 Cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium Zucchini, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
- 8 Wooden skewers, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, black pepper, red pepper flakes, cumin, paprika, and grated onion. Mix well.
Add the beef cubes into the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
While the beef is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Ensure the bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, and zucchini are cut into appropriately sized pieces for skewering.
Begin assembling the kababs by threading a piece of beef onto the skewer, followed by a piece of bell pepper, a cherry tomato, and a slice of zucchini. Repeat until the skewer is filled, leaving some space at the ends. Alternate the order as desired.
Repeat the skewering process for the remaining skewers.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning every 3-4 minutes, until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness and the vegetables are nicely charred.
Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill. Let them rest for a few minutes before serving to retain juiciness.
Serve the kababs hot, with a side of your choice, like a fresh salad or some flatbread.
