Ingredients
- Wooden skewers
- 8-10, soaked in water for 30 minutes
- Cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup
- Red onion
- 1 medium, cut into wedges
- Bell peppers
- 1 large, cut into bite-sized pieces (any color)
- Salt
- 1 teaspoon
- Black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons
- Honey
- 2 tablespoons
- Soy sauce
- 1/4 cup
- Garlic
- 3 cloves, minced
- Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Beef sirloin
- 1.5 pounds, cut into 1-inch cubes
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, soy sauce, honey, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
- Add the beef cubes to the marinade and toss to coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for deeper flavor.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Once the beef is marinated, thread the beef cubes onto the soaked wooden skewers, alternating with pieces of bell pepper, red onion, and cherry tomatoes for a colorful presentation.
- Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the beef reaches your desired level of doneness (aim for medium-rare to medium for optimal tenderness).
- After grilling, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for 3-5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
- Serve the beef skewers hot with your favorite dipping sauce or alongside a fresh salad or grilled vegetables.
Tips
- If you prefer a spicier kick, consider adding some crushed red pepper flakes to the marinade.
- For an even more vibrant flavor, try adding fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley to the skewers before grilling.
