Ingredients

• 1 pound Beef sirloin or loin, cut into 1-inch cubes
• 1 large Red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 large Green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 large Red onion, cut into wedges
• 1 medium Zucchini, sliced into thick rounds
• 12 each Cherry tomatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, black pepper, paprika, dried oregano, and lemon juice. Stir well to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the beef cubes in the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors penetrate the meat.

Step 3

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.

Step 4

While the grill is heating, prepare the vegetables. In a separate bowl, toss the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, red onion, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes with a little olive oil.

Step 5

Thread the marinated beef and prepared vegetables onto the skewers, alternating between the meat and different vegetables. Ensure each skewer has an even mix of ingredients for balanced cooking.

Step 6

Place the kabobs on the preheated grill. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning every few minutes, until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness and the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.

Step 7

Remove from the grill and let the kabobs rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 8

Serve the kabobs warm with a side of fresh salad or whole grain rice for a complete meal.
