Beef Brochettes

Beef Brochettes are a flavorful Moroccan BBQ dish featuring tender chunks of marinated beef, skewered and grilled to perfection. This low-carb delight is rich in spices, offering a unique taste experience that is both satisfying and healthy.

Ingredients

• beef sirloin - 300 grams, cut into 2.5 cm cubes
• olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• ground cumin - 1 teaspoon
• ground coriander - 1 teaspoon
• smoked paprika - 1 teaspoon
• ground cinnamon - 1/2 teaspoon
• salt - 1 teaspoon
• black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• skewers - 4 (soaked in water if wooden)

Steps

1. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, smoked paprika, ground cinnamon, salt, black pepper, chopped parsley, and lemon juice to create a marinade.
2. Add the beef cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).
3. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
4. Thread the marinated beef cubes onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
5. Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness (medium-rare is recommended).
6. Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
