Ingredients

• 2 pounds beef sirloin
• 1 large red onion
• 1 large red bell pepper
• 1 large yellow bell pepper
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 4 cloves garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1.5 teaspoons sea salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Cut the beef sirloin into 1.5-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Slice the red onion, red bell pepper, and yellow bell pepper into large chunks suitable for skewering.

Step 3

In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, minced garlic cloves, ground cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, sea salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 4

Pour the marinade over the beef cubes, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for deeper flavor.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Once marinated, thread the beef cubes onto skewers, alternating with pieces of red onion, red bell pepper, and yellow bell pepper.

Step 7

Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the beef is browned and cooked to desired doneness.

Step 8

Remove the skewers from the grill and allow them to rest for a few minutes.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
