Grilled Steak And Veggie Skewers With Chimichurri
Steak skewers are perfect for summer and so easy to make! Sirloin steak is marinated while tender veggies are tossed in chimichurri sauce before compiling them on skewers and grilling them. Drizzled with additional chimichurri before serving! (Jump to Recipe)
Marinate The Steak
Mix together olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire, lemon juice, paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Cut sirloin steak into 1/2 inch strips and place into the bowl with marinate. Place into the refrigerator. In the meantime make the chimichurri and prep the veggies.
Make Chimichurri Sauce
In a food processor, add shallot, garlic, and red wine vinegar. Pulse until roughly chopped. Stop and scrape down the sides. Add oregano, parsley, and basil. Slowly add olive oil while pulsing. Stop and scrape down the sides once more. Stop pulsing when herbs are finely chopped. Stir in salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Prep The Veggies
Red Onion – Cut off the ends and cut into quarters
Bell Peppers – Remove core and seeds, cut each bell pepper into 8 pieces
Summer Squash – Slice into 1/2 inch rounds
Grape Tomatoes – Leave as is
Toss all of the veggies in HALF of the chimichurri sauce.
Assemble Steak Skewers
Thread steak (accordion-style) and veggies onto 10-inch skewers in desired order. 2 steak pieces per skewer is recommended.
Grill Steak Skewers
Preheat grill and place skewers on the grill. Grill 6-8 minutes per side or until desired doneness, turning occasionally. Drizzle with remaining chimichurri sauce before serving.
