# What You Need:
→ Meat & Marinade
01 - 1.5 pounds sirloin steak, cut into 1.5-inch cubes
02 - 1/4 cup olive oil
03 - 3 tablespoons soy sauce (use gluten-free if needed)
04 - 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
05 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
06 - 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
07 - 1 tablespoon honey
08 - 1 teaspoon dried oregano
09 - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
10 - 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
→ Vegetables
11 - 1 large red bell pepper, cut into 1.5-inch pieces
12 - 1 large yellow bell pepper, cut into 1.5-inch pieces
13 - 1 large red onion, cut into wedges
14 - 1 zucchini, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
15 - 8 ounces cremini or button mushrooms, stems trimmed
# How To Make:
01 - In a large bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, honey, dried oregano, black pepper, and kosher salt. Whisk until well blended.
02 - Add sirloin cubes to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours for enhanced flavor.
03 - Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat, approximately 400°F.
04 - Thread marinated beef cubes and prepared vegetables alternately onto skewers, distributing evenly.
05 - Place skewers on the grill. Cook for 10 to 12 minutes, turning every 2 to 3 minutes, until the beef achieves desired doneness and the vegetables are tender-crisp.
06 - Remove skewers from the grill and allow kabobs to rest for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
# Expert Hints:
01 -
- The marinade transforms ordinary steak into something that tastes like it came from a restaurant
- Everything cooks on one stick, which means fewer dishes and more time with people you actually like
02 -
- Do not skip the resting time—the juices need to redistribute or you will end up with dry meat
- Soak wooden skewers for 30 minutes before grilling or they will burn to a crisp
03 -
- Thread everything with the same ingredients on each skewer so they cook evenly
- Leave a tiny bit of space between pieces so the heat can circulate properly
