Steak and Vegetables
- 2 pounds sirloin steak, cut into 1 1/4 inch pieces
- 2 bell peppers, cut into 1 1/4 inch pieces
- 1 red onion, cut into 1 1/4 inch pieces
- 1 zucchini, sliced
- Olive oil, for drizzling
- Salt & pepper, to taste
Marinade
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
Instructions
- Soak Skewers: Place wooden skewers in water and allow to soak for at least 30 minutes or preferably overnight to prevent burning during grilling.
- Prepare Marinade: In a bowl, mix together olive oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and fresh ground pepper until well combined.
- Marinate Steak: Place the sirloin steak pieces in a gallon size zip-lock bag. Pour the marinade over the steak, seal the bag removing as much air as possible, and refrigerate for 3 to 6 hours to allow flavors to develop.
- Preheat Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat, approximately 450-500°F, ensuring it is ready for cooking.
- Prepare Vegetables: Cut bell peppers, red onion, and zucchini into 1 1/4 inch pieces. Spread them on a cutting board or pan, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat evenly.
- Assemble Kabobs: Thread marinated steak pieces and vegetables alternately onto the soaked skewers. Discard any leftover marinade to avoid contamination.
- Grill Kabobs: Place the skewers on the hot grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, turning all four sides to ensure even cooking. Aim for medium rare to medium doneness.
- Serve: Remove kabobs from the grill and let rest briefly before serving hot and enjoying your flavorful steak kabobs.
Notes
- Soaking wooden skewers is essential to prevent them from burning on the grill.
- Marinating the steak for at least 3 hours enhances flavor and tenderness; overnight is best.
- Adjust grilling time based on preferred steak doneness and skewer thickness.
- Vegetables chosen can be varied to your preference, such as mushrooms or cherry tomatoes.
- Make sure to discard any leftover marinade that has been in contact with raw meat to avoid foodborne illness.
