These savory juicy steak kebabs are quick and easy to prepare, perfect for summer grilling with tender marinated steak and fresh veggies on skewers.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds top sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 large red bell pepper, cut into chunks
  • 1 medium red onion, peeled and cut into chunks
  • 1 medium zucchini, sliced into thick rounds
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Optional: pinch of crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Trim any excess fat from the steak and cut into even 1-inch cubes. Chop the bell pepper, onion, and zucchini into chunks roughly the same size as the steak pieces.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, oregano, pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes if using.
  3. Add the steak cubes and veggies into the marinade. Toss gently to coat every piece well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, but no more than 2 hours.
  4. Remove the steak and veggies from the marinade, letting excess drip off. Thread the pieces onto skewers, alternating meat and veggies, leaving space between pieces.
  5. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). If using charcoal, wait until coals are covered with white ash.
  6. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, turning carefully. Aim for medium-rare to medium doneness (135°F to 145°F internal temperature).
  7. Let the kebabs rest for 5 minutes off the heat before serving to allow juices to redistribute.

Notes

Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning. Use a meat thermometer to ensure perfect doneness. Do not marinate longer than 2 hours to avoid mushy meat. Let kebabs rest after grilling for juicy results.
