Ingredients

Scale

Protein:

  • 1 pound top sirloin steak

Vegetables:

  • 2 bell peppers
  • 1 yellow onion

Spices and Seasonings:

  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Fresh ground pepper (to taste)

Additional Ingredients:

  • 6 bamboo skewers
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • Chopped fresh cilantro
  • Guacamole

Instructions

  1. Immerse bamboo skewers in water for 15 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
  2. Heat broiler to HIGH and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
  3. Combine steak cubes, bell peppers, and onions in a spacious mixing bowl.
  4. Sprinkle cumin, chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper over the mixture. Drizzle with oil and thoroughly toss to ensure even coating.
  5. Drain skewers and carefully thread with marinated steak and vegetable pieces, distributing ingredients evenly.
  6. Arrange skewers on prepared baking sheet, positioning them parallel to each other for uniform cooking.
  7. Broil for 5 minutes, then carefully flip skewers to ensure even caramelization and continue cooking for an additional 4 minutes until steak reaches 135˚F to 140˚F internal temperature.
  8. Remove from broiler and let rest for 2-3 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
  9. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and serve alongside creamy guacamole for a vibrant, flavorful meal.

Notes

  • Prevent wooden skewers from burning by thoroughly soaking them in water before threading ingredients.
  • Customize spice levels by adjusting cayenne pepper quantity for mild or extra spicy kabobs.
  • Choose lean cuts like sirloin or tenderloin for tender, quick-cooking steak pieces that remain juicy during high-heat roasting.
  • Ensure even cooking by cutting steak and vegetables into uniform, bite-sized cubes approximately 1-inch thick.
