A vibrant and flavorful recipe for beef skewers, perfect for grilling enthusiasts.
Preheat your grill to medium heat.
Ensure the grill is clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the juice of the lemon, brown sugar, thyme, oregano, salt, pepper, and minced garlic. Stir until combined and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Allow the marinade to cool before adding the beef to prevent premature cooking.
Cut the beef into bite-sized cubes and place them in the marinade. Let it sit for 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
For a deeper flavor, marinate the beef for up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Prepare the vegetables by cutting them into similar-sized pieces for even cooking.
Keep the vegetable pieces slightly larger than the beef cubes to prevent overcooking.
Thread the beef and vegetables alternately onto skewers.
Leave a small gap between pieces on the skewer for even cooking.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook, turning occasionally and brushing with reserved marinade, for 10-15 minutes or until the beef reaches your desired doneness.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the beef is cooked to at least 145°F for medium-rare.
Serve the skewers hot with your favorite side dishes.
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for added flavor and presentation.
