These grilled steak, potato and bell pepper kabobs are easy to cook up and so much fun to eat. An 8 hour marinade does wonders to the steak and at the end of grilling the kabobs get's brushed with a homemade buttery herb oil.
The world's prettiest looking kabobs! The orange and red from the bell pepper, also the red from the cherry tomatoes, the yellow from the petite potatoes and purple from the onion.
Not to mention the green from the chopped rosemary and basil in the buttery herb oil that you slater over top!
You can serve these with an italian pasta salad or maybe even a tomato corn salad.
The Steak Marinade
To start the kabob process you'll need to cut up and marinate the steak. It's a petite sirloin which can be a bit tough, there is very little fat on this cut of meat! During the summer you can get this steak on sale a lot, so keep an eye out and that's the best time to make steak kabobs.
Cut your steak pieces fairly large, larger than a bit size piece. Because there are potatoes on the skewer you don't want the meat to overcook and if you use really small pieces of steak you'll have raw potatoes and overcooked meat.
8 hours is the optimum time for marinating, so before you leave for work or just when you start your day get these marinating.
In a big bowl combine oil, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, worcestershire, soy sauce, fresh chopped rosemary, minced garlic, salt and pepper.
Dredge the steak in it, tossing everything around, cover and put it in your fridge until you are ready to use it.
Cutting The Vegetables
The vegetables don't need to be cut as big as the steak, so you can keep those a bite size square size.
The petite potatoes can vary in size a bit. Sometimes you get small ones and other times they are pretty big. You'll have to use your best judgement and if they look larger than the other ones, go ahead and cut them into quarters instead of halves.
Keep the cherry tomatoes whole, those do not need to be cut up because if you do they will just disintegrate on the grill. It also works best if they are toward the middle of the skewers vs the outside.
Grilling The Steak Kabobs
Whatever vegetables are toward the outer edges of the skewers will cook more. So keep that in mind, it's a smart idea to put the potatoes on the ends.
Kabobs tend to cook pretty fast so make sure if you aren't staying at the grill that you set a timer. Nothing is more devastating than accidentally overcooking your steak kabobs and the meat being really tough!
Start with 5 minutes on the first side then flip. I usually do another 5 minutes. But depending on how you like your meat cooked you may like less time or more.
Pull them off the grill and brush on that dreamy buttery herb oil.
