Marinated Beef Kabobs

Colourful and juicy, these Beef Kabobs are made using marinated steak pieces to infuse with extra flavour and tenderise. I’ve used capsicum/peppers, red onion and mushroom here, but there’s a plethora of other vegetables that could be used!

Ingredients :

  • 750g / 1.5 lb beef tri-tip , sirloin steak tips or other steak cut,
  • 3 capsicum / bell peppers
  • 1 large red onion
  • 16 small mushrooms , 3.25cm / 1.3" wide
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 2 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 16 flat metal skewers , 25 - 30cm / 10 - 12"
  • Olive oil , for drizzling and cooking
  • Finely chopped parsley , garnish

Directions :

  1. Cut the beef into 3.25cm / 1.3" wide cubes.
  2. Mix Marinade in a bowl. Add beef. Marinate for 1 - 24 hours, minimum 20 minutes.
  3. Cut capsicum and onion into 3.25cm / 1.3" wide squares.
  4. Thread beef (reserve Marinade), vegetables and mushrooms on each skewer. I use 2 pieces of vegetables between each piece of beef. Thread loosely - don't smush together tightly (helps even cooking).
  5. Brush kebabs lightly with Reserved Marinade (including vegetables), then drizzle with olive oil.
  6. Heat BBQ or large skillet over high heat. Add 1 tbsp oil, then when smoking, cook kebabs in batches for 2 minutes on each side until slightly charred (4 sides = 8 minutes in total), basting with Reserved Marinade as you go.
  7. Transfer to plate, cover loosely with foil and rest for 3 minutes before serving. Garnish with parsley if desired. See note for pictured Pink Dipping Sauce.
