Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ lbs sirloin steak, 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 large red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 large zucchini, cut into ½-inch rounds
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes (or to taste)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar
  • ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 8-10 wooden or metal skewers (if wooden, soak for 30 mins)

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, and black pepper.
  2. Marinate the Meat: Add the cubed sirloin steak to the marinade, tossing to ensure all pieces are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
  3. Prepare the Chimichurri: In a small bowl, combine parsley, cilantro, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes. Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil, stirring until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Assemble the Kabobs: Thread the marinated steak cubes and assorted vegetables onto the skewers.
  5. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grill grates.
  6. Grill the Kabobs: Cook the assembled kabobs for 8-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat reaches your desired doneness.
  7. Rest and Serve: Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  8. Drizzle and Enjoy: Drizzle chimichurri over the warm kabobs just before serving.

Notes

Marinate the meat for 2-4 hours for deeper flavor. Use fresh ingredients for the chimichurri. Rest the meat after grilling for better texture.
