Spicy Steak Kebabs

I found this Alton Brown spicy steak kebabs recipe online at Food Network and it sounded easy to make and perfect for serving our dinner guests. I let the meat marinate for a little over 6 hours and it turned out delicious and so flavorful. We all, adults and children included, loved these kebabs. Kudos to my husband who grilled them to perfection!

How to Make Make Spicy Steak Kebabs

Cut the beef into like size cubes and place it into a large zip lock bag.

Add the garlic, paprika, cumin, turmeric, salt, pepper, and red wine vinegar together in a food processor. With the processor running drizzle in the olive oil. Pour the marinade over the meat and mix well to coat the meat evenly. Place into the refrigerator and let the meat marinate for at least 4 hours.

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Slice up the bell pepper, red onion, and zucchini. Toss the veggies, including the mushrooms, into a large bowl. Drizzle a bit of olive oil on top, then season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Toss to coat evenly.

Thread the skewers with the meat and vegetables, leaving a bit of space in between each piece.

  1. So yummy! I needed a steak recipe to up my iron so I could donate blood the next day. These were super simple, and utterly flavorful. I would call them “well-seasoned” rather than “spicy” – I made them per the recipe and we didn’t find them to too hot or spicy. Just right! I used other vegetables that I had on hand from my CSA. That, along with a roasted beet salad and naan bread, made a perfect Sunday lunch for a hot day! (PS…really nice with a chilled rose wine instead of a heavier red.)
