🔪 Instructions
✅ 1. Marinate the Steak:
-
In a bowl or zip-top bag, whisk together all marinade ingredients.
-
Add steak cubes, toss to coat, and marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours for deeper flavor.
✅ 2. Prep the Skewers:
-
Preheat your grill (or oven) to medium-high heat.
-
Thread marinated steak, bell peppers, onions, and zucchini onto skewers, alternating pieces.
✅ 3. Grill or Roast:
-
Grill: Cook kebabs for 10–12 minutes, turning every 2–3 minutes, until steak is cooked to desired doneness and veggies are charred.
-
Oven: Bake at 425°F (220°C) on a lined sheet for 15–18 minutes, broiling the last 2–3 minutes to caramelize the edges.
✅ 4. Rest & Serve:
Remove from heat and let rest 5 minutes. Serve hot with rice, flatbread, tzatziki, chimichurri, or salad.
🌟 Tips & Variations:
-
Best cuts: Sirloin, ribeye, or NY strip work best for tenderness.
-
Add pineapple or cherry tomatoes for sweet bursts of flavor.
-
Use a teriyaki or spicy chipotle marinade for a flavor twist.
