Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 3 tablespoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional veggies for skewering: 1 red bell pepper (cut into chunks), 1 yellow onion (cut into wedges), cherry tomatoes

Instructions

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, lemon juice, salt (about 1 teaspoon), and freshly ground black pepper (about ½ teaspoon). Whisk until well blended.
  2. Add the cubed steak to the bowl and toss to coat all pieces evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, ideally 1 to 2 hours.
  3. While the steak marinates, chop bell peppers and onions into bite-sized pieces. Keep cherry tomatoes whole, washed, and dried.
  4. Alternate pieces of steak and veggies on each skewer, starting and ending with steak. Leave a little space between pieces for even cooking.
  5. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 450°F). Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
  6. Place skewers on the grill and cook about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare (internal temperature around 130°F). Adjust cooking time for preferred doneness.
  7. Remove skewers from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Soak bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning. Use a meat thermometer to check doneness for perfect results. Avoid marinating longer than 4 hours to prevent the meat from becoming mushy. Let the meat rest after grilling to retain juices. For flare-ups, move skewers to a cooler part of the grill or use a spray bottle to control flames.
