Ingredients

• 1 pound beef sirloin, 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 medium red onion, cut into wedges
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 8 skewers wooden or metal skewers

Directions

Step 1

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, honey, chili powder, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the marinade until well-blended.

Step 3

Add the beef cubes to the bowl, ensuring all pieces are coated in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, but preferably 2–3 hours for maximum flavor.

Step 4

While the beef marinates, prepare the vegetables. Cut the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and red onion into 1-inch pieces.

Step 5

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375–400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Step 6

Assemble the kabobs by threading the marinated beef and vegetables onto the skewers, alternating between beef, bell peppers, and onion pieces.

Step 7

Place the kabobs on the grill and cook for 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking. The beef should be browned on all sides and reach a minimum internal temperature of 145°F for medium-rare or longer if you prefer it more cooked.

Step 8

Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Serve the spicy grilled beef kabobs with your favorite side dishes, such as rice, salad, or grilled vegetables.
