Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Beef sirloin
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 6 Bamboo skewers
Instructions
Cut the beef sirloin into 1-inch cubes and place in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the marinade over the beef cubes, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for better flavor absorption.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated beef pieces onto the soaked bamboo skewers, distributing them evenly across all skewers.
Grill the skewers for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness.
Once cooked, remove from the grill and let the beef rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the souvlaki with a fresh salad or compliant sides to keep it Whole30-friendly.
