A quick and easy recipe featuring lean beef sirloin skewers paired with sweet roasted bell peppers, perfect for grilling season and casual dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound lean beef sirloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 large bell peppers (red, yellow, or orange), cut into 1.5-inch pieces
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Wooden or metal skewers (soaked in water for 30 minutes if wooden)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the marinade by combining olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, dried oregano, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Whisk until well blended.
  2. Add the cubed lean beef sirloin to the marinade. Toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes and up to 2 hours.
  3. Wash and cut the bell peppers into 1.5-inch pieces. Toss lightly with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
  4. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  5. Thread the beef cubes and pepper pieces alternately onto the skewers, leaving a little space between pieces for even cooking.
  6. Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F / 200°C).
  7. Grill the skewers for 3–4 minutes per side, turning to get even char marks, for a total of 10–12 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
  8. Remove skewers from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning. Use a meat thermometer to avoid overcooking. Let skewers rest for 5 minutes after grilling to redistribute juices. If peppers char too quickly, move skewers to a cooler part of the grill.
