Description
A perfect summer meal featuring tender beef steak, succulent shrimp, and vibrant veggies, all grilled and topped with a zesty chimichurri sauce.
Ingredients
1 lb beef steak (sirloin or ribeye), cut into 1-inch cubes
1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 red onion, cut into chunks
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Wood or metal skewers
1 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
¼ cup olive oil
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
Salt and black pepper, to taste (for sauce)
Instructions
- Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes.
- Toss steak with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Thread steak, shrimp, bell pepper, and onion alternately onto skewers.
- Grill skewers for 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally, until shrimp is opaque and steak reaches desired doneness.
- In a bowl, combine parsley, olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Blend for a smoother texture if desired.
- Drizzle chimichurri over skewers or serve on the side. Garnish with chopped parsley.
Notes
- Add zucchini, cherry tomatoes, or mushrooms for more variety.
- Chicken or lamb can be substituted for beef.
- Increase red pepper flakes for added heat.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Keep sauce separate.
- Reheat skewers on the grill or in a skillet; stir chimichurri before serving.
