Ingredients
1 1/2 lbs sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 green bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 red onion, cut into chunks
1 zucchini, sliced (optional)
Skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak in water for 30 minutes)
Marinade
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp lemon juice
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp brown sugar or honey
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp black pepper
Instructions
Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, garlic, brown sugar (or honey), oregano, and black pepper.
Marinate the Beef: Place beef cubes in a large resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the beef, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours for maximum flavor.
Assemble the Kabobs: Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated beef, bell peppers, onion, and zucchini (if using) onto skewers, alternating between meat and veggies.
Grill the Kabobs: Place kabobs on the preheated grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the beef reaches desired doneness (about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare).
Serve: Serve the kabobs hot with rice, pita, or a side salad.
Helpful Tips
Vegetable Options: Mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, and squash work well as additional veggies for kabobs.
Rest the Beef: Allow the beef to rest for a few minutes before serving to retain juices.
Oven Option: If grilling isn’t available, bake the kabobs in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes.
