Ingredients

  • 1 pound NY strip steak chopped into 2-inch chunks
  • 2 Tbsp avocado oil
  • 3 Tbsp liquid aminos or soy sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
Vegetables For Shish Kabobs:
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 green bell pepper
  • 1 orange bell pepper
  • 1 red onion
  • 2 Tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 Tbsp liquid aminos or soy sauce

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Chop the steak into 2-inch cubes then transfer it to a mixing bowl along with the marinade ingredients. Give everything a stir until the chunks of steak are coated in marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Note: you can also add everything to a large resealable plastic bag. Seal bag and shake everything around. Refrigerate marinated steak for at least 10 minutes, up to 12 hours.
  2. If you’re using a charcoal grill, be sure to get the coals going at least 20 minutes before grilling. If you’re using wooden skewers, soak the skewers in water (be sure they’re submerged as best as possible) for ideally 20 minutes prior to using them. This will help prevent them from igniting easily over the open flame of the grill.
  3. When you’re ready to make the skewers, chop the bell peppers and onion and toss the vegetables in a large bowl with avocado oil and liquid aminos (or soy sauce).
  4. Thread the steak cubes and vegetables onto the skewers until all of the marinated meat and veggies are used. This should make 6 to 8 large skewers, depending on the length of your skewers.
  5. If using a gas grill, preheat the grill to a high heat, or set it for 500 degrees Fahrenheit.
  6. Place kabobs over direct heat (over an open flame) and grill kabobs for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping once or twice, or until the meat reaches your desired level of doneness. If the grill is very hot, flip skewers every 2-3 minutes to avoid burning. The exact grill time is up to your personal preference and how you like your meat done.
  7. Transfer the cooked BBQ steak kabobs to a serving platter, baking sheet, or large plate. Allow the meat to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • To bake beef kabobs in the oven, place your oven on the High Broil setting and allow it to heat up for 5 minutes.
  • Lay the steak skewers in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Leave a little space between the kabobs to ensure they bake evenly.
  • Place the sheet pan on a shelf that’s near the top (I go with the third rack down). Broil for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the steak reaches your desired level of doneness. 
  • If you have any leftovers, remove the meat and veggies from the skewers and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
