Ingredients:
For the Skewers:
1 1/2 lbs beef sirloin or ribeye, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp garlic powder
Salt and black pepper to taste
Wooden skewers, soaked in water
For the Chimichurri Sauce:
1 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped (optional)
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/3 cup olive oil
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tsp red chili flakes (adjust to taste)
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Let’s Make It Happen:
Prep the Beef:
Toss the beef cubes with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate for at least 20 minutes.
Make the Chimichurri Sauce:
In a bowl, mix parsley, cilantro, garlic, olive oil, red wine vinegar, chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Stir well and let the flavors meld while preparing the skewers.
Assemble the Skewers:
Thread the marinated beef cubes onto the soaked skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
Grill to Perfection:
Heat the grill to medium-high. Grill the skewers for 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare, or cook to your desired doneness.
Serve with Chimichurri:
Drizzle the fresh chimichurri sauce over the hot skewers or serve it on the side for dipping.
Tips for Extra Magic:
Add bell peppers, onions, or cherry tomatoes to the skewers for extra flavor and color.
Marinate the beef overnight for deeper flavor.
Serve with crusty bread or rice for a complete meal.
