Hawaiian Beef Kebabs
Ingredients:
– 1 ½ pounds beef sirloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
– 1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
– 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into chunks
– 1 green bell pepper, cut into chunks
– 1 red onion, cut into chunks
– 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks
– 1/2 cup soy sauce
– 1/4 cup brown sugar
– 1/4 cup olive oil
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tsp ground ginger
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions:
1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, olive oil, garlic, ginger, salt, and pepper to create a marinade. Reserve a small portion of the marinade for basting during grilling.
2. Place the beef cubes in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the beef, ensuring all pieces are coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best flavor infusion.
3. If you’re using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
5. Assemble your kebabs by threading the marinated beef cubes onto the skewers, alternating with bell pepper, onion, and pineapple chunks in between.
6. Place the assembled kebabs on the preheated grill. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with the reserved marinade, until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness and vegetables are tender-crisp.
7. Once cooked, remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
8. Serve your Hawaiian Beef Kebabs hot and enjoy the explosion of flavors with each bite!
