Ingredients
  

BEER MARINADE

  • 450 g sirloin beef cut in 1-inch cubes
  • 1 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 1 lemon zest and juice used separately
  • ½ tbsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 cloves garlic crushed
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper

SKEWERS

  • 1 green capsicum cut in 1-inch cubes
  • 1 red capsicum cut in 1-inch cubes
  • 1 brown onion cut in 1-inch cubes or petals
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper

Instructions
 

  • To a large bowl, add the meat and marinade ingredients. Toss to coat. Cover bowl with a lid, plastic wrap and leave in the fridge for 1 hour or overnight for best results.
    450 g sirloin beef, 1 tbsp dijon mustard, 1 lemon, ½ tbsp paprika, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp dried thyme, 1 cloves garlic, 3 tbsp olive oil, 1/4 tsp pepper, 1/4 tsp salt
  • Before cooking. Place the cubed veggies in a medium bowl with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt and pepper to taste.
    1 green capsicum, 1 red capsicum, 1 brown onion, 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper
  • If using wooden skewers, dump them in water to avoid burning during cooking time. Cut the tips to fit your skillet.
  • Thread the beef along with the veggies between each piece of meat.
  • Brush the skewers with the remaining marinade.
  • Bring a large grill pan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil, cook the skewers for 8 minutes, 2 minutes on each side. Drizzle more olive oil along the process to avoid burning.
  • Transfer to a serving platter and cover with foil for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use a food processor or blender to mix the marinade. Using one of these tools will ensure the ingredients combine completely.
Soak the wooden skewers before you cook the skewers. This will prevent them from burning on your outdoor grill.
Pound the meat thinner. This way, your souvlaki beef will grill quicker.
