- 1.5 lbs Beef sirloin
- 1 medium Eggplant
- 2 large Bell peppers (red, yellow, or orange)
- 1 small Red onion
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 1/4 cup Olive oil
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 tsp Dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/4 tsp Black pepper
- 8-12 Wooden or metal skewers
How to make Mediterranean Beef & Veggie Skewers
- If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- Trim the beef sirloin and cut it into 1-inch cubes. Pat the beef dry with paper towels to help the marinade adhere.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, minced 3 cloves garlic, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add the cubed beef to the marinade, toss to coat, and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
- While the beef marinates, prepare the vegetables: Cut the medium eggplant into 1-inch cubes. Cut the 2 large bell peppers into 1-inch pieces. Cut the small red onion into 1-inch wedges.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F) or preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) if baking.
- Thread the marinated beef, eggplant cubes, bell pepper pieces, red onion wedges, and 1 cup cherry tomatoes alternately onto the soaked skewers, leaving a small space between each piece for even cooking.
- If grilling: Grill the skewers for 8-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the beef reaches your desired doneness (135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium) and the vegetables are tender-crisp and lightly charred. If baking: Arrange the skewers on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the beef is cooked and vegetables are tender.
- Remove the skewers from the grill or oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices in the beef to redistribute, ensuring a more tender bite.
