Ingredients

• 1 pound Beef sirloin
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 0.25 cup Lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 6 Bamboo skewers

Directions

Step 1

Cut the beef sirloin into 1-inch cubes and place in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Pour the marinade over the beef cubes, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for better flavor absorption.

Step 4

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.

Step 5

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 6

Thread the marinated beef pieces onto the soaked bamboo skewers, distributing them evenly across all skewers.

Step 7

Grill the skewers for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove from the grill and let the beef rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 9

Serve the souvlaki with a fresh salad or compliant sides to keep it Whole30-friendly.
