Ingredients

Beef Marinade

  • 1 lb (450g) beef sirloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Skewers Components

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1 cup fresh mozzarella balls (bocconcini)
  • Fresh basil leaves
  • Skewers

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Beef: In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Add the beef sirloin cubes and toss to coat evenly. Let the beef marinate for at least 30 minutes to enhance flavor and tenderness.
  2. Prepare the Grill: Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat to ensure it is hot enough for proper searing and cooking of the skewers.
  3. Assemble the Skewers: Thread the marinated beef cubes, cherry tomatoes, fresh mozzarella balls, and basil leaves alternately onto the skewers, ensuring an even distribution of flavors and colors.
  4. Grill the Skewers: Place the assembled skewers onto the preheated grill. Cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally to achieve even grilling and desired doneness of the beef.
  5. Serve: Remove the skewers from the grill and serve warm. Optionally, drizzle with additional balsamic vinegar for an extra layer of tangy flavor.

Notes

  • For best results, use fresh mozzarella balls and fresh basil leaves.
  • Adjust the cooking time based on your preferred beef doneness.
  • Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
  • This recipe is naturally low-carb and keto-friendly.
  • Can be served with a side salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
