Ingredients

  • 2 pounds boneless sirloin steak, trimmed of excess fat and cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced or 2 teaspoons pre-minced garlic
  • 1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce Gluten-Free: Use coconut aminos or gluten-free Tamari soy sauce
  • 1/3 cup avocado oil sub: olive oil
  • 1/4 cup all-natural Worcestershire sauce Gluten-Free: Look for one labeled gluten-free.
  • 1 tablespoon honey sub: real maple syrup or brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • A pinch of red pepper flakes about 1/8 teaspoon
  • 1 large red onion, cut into bite-sized (about 1 inch) pieces
  • 2 red bell peppers, cored and cut into bite-sized (about 1 inch) pieces

Instructions

  • Make Marinade: To a gallon-sized freezer bag, add steak, garlic, soy sauce, oil, Worcestershire, honey, onion powder, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Press air out, seal, and toss to combine.
  • Marinate Steak: Place the bag in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes and up to 8 hours to marinate. Tip: Set the bag in a dish in case there are any leaks. Meanwhile, if using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes. 
  • Prep the Grill: Clean and preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat (around 350°-400°F). 
  • Build Kabobs: Build the kabobs in a 9x13-inch baking dish to contain the mess. Thread a piece of onion, bell pepper, and beef onto the skewers, repeating until the skewer is mostly filled. (You’ll end up with about 3 pieces of meat per skewer.) Leave a little space between each ingredient so they grill evenly. Pour the rest of the marinade over the kabobs to coat the veggies.
  • Grill Kabobs: Grill the kabobs, turning frequently, until the vegetables are tender and the beef is seared on all sides and cooked to desired doneness*, about 8-10 minutes. (Be sure to discard the marinade.) Let rest for 5 minutes. 
  • *USDA recommends a safe minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees for beef. 

Notes

  • Use disposable gloves when threading the kabobs for easy clean up. 
  • Save the inside of the onion, if the pieces are too small for the kabob, and throw in a soup, sauce, or marinade later.
  • Mix up the veggies if you want! Red onion and bell peppers are my veggies of choice. Mushrooms would also be great with this recipe. 
  • Gluten-Free Version: Use coconut aminos or gluten-free Tamari soy sauce. Make sure the brand of Worcestershire sauce is gluten-free. I like the Lea & Perrins brand.
  • It would be delicious served with a little Garlic Herb Butter.
