Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds beef sirloin
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 8 bamboo or metal skewers
Instructions
If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
Start by cutting the beef sirloin into bite-sized chunks, approximately 1.5-inch cubes.
In a large bowl, prepare the marinade by mixing together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Add the beef chunks to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, preferably 2-4 hours for more flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated beef chunks onto the skewers, leaving a small amount of space between each piece to ensure even cooking.
Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the beef reaches your desired level of doneness. Aim for an internal temperature of at least 145°F for medium-rare.
Remove the skewers from the grill and let the beef rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the Paleo Grilled Beef Chunks hot, accompanied by your favorite Paleo-friendly sides.
