Ingredients
- 500 grams lean beef chunks
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 medium red onion, sliced
- 2 pieces bell peppers, assorted colors, sliced
Directions
Step 1
In a bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, fresh thyme leaves, black pepper, and sea salt. Mix well to form the marinade.
Step 2
Add the lean beef chunks to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
Step 3
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. While the grill heats up, thread the marinated beef chunks onto skewers, alternating with slices of red onion and bell peppers, to create colorful skewers.
Step 4
Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side, turning occasionally, until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness and the vegetables are tender.
Step 5
Use a meat thermometer to check that the beef chunks have reached an internal temperature of at least 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare.
Step 6
Once done, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes. Serve hot with a side of whole grain or a fresh salad for a complete heart-healthy meal.
