Beef Skewers
Beef Skewers are a classic summer dish. The beef is marinated for a minimum of two hours before being grilled with veggies!
Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 1 # beef kabob meat or stew meat cut into ½ inch pieces
- 1 zucchini, cut into ½ inch pieces
- 1 summer squash, cut into ½ inch pieces
- ½ red onion, cut into ½ pieces
- 1 red bell pepper, seeds removed and cut into ½ pieces
For the marinade:
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 3 tbsp coconut aminos
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 small garlic clove, minced
- 1 tbsp thyme, finely chopped
- 1 tsp hot sauce
- 1 tsp salt
- ¼ tsp pepper
Instructions
Marinade:
- To prepare the marinade, combine all ingredients in glass container or a plastic bag. Another option is to place all the ingredients into a blender and blend until everything is blended and smooth. Place the beef in the container or plastic bag and coat well. Place in the refridgerator for a minimum of two hours to overnight
For the skewers:
- If you are using wooden skewers, submerge them in water for a minimum of one hour. Don't worry about doing this if you are using metal skewers. This is to pre3vent the wood from catching on fire on the grill
- Before assembling the skewers, start the grill and allow to warm up. Give yourself extra time if you are using charcoal
- To assemble the skewers, take one piece of the beef and slide it on the skewer stick. Continue rotating with the vegetables and meat. I like to have about three pieces of meat per skewer stick
- Once all of the meat and vegetables are used up and the grill is hot, place the beef skewers on the grill and grill about 2-3 minutes on each side. Once grilled and cooked, transfer to a plate and allow to rest for five minutes before enjoying!
