Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams vegetarian beef cubes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and soy sauce until well combined.
Add the minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, parsley, black pepper, and salt to the bowl. Mix thoroughly to create the herb marinade.
Place the vegetarian beef cubes into the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated vegetarian beef cubes onto skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece for even cooking.
Grill the skewers for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the cubes are cooked through and have nice grill marks.
Remove from the grill and let rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the vegetarian grilled beef cubes hot, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
