Ingredients
Marinade
- ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 Tablespoon dijon mustard
- 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 Tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Kabobs
- 1 ½ pounds sirloin steak or sirloin tips, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 pound baby Yukon gold potatoes
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons dijon or whole-grain mustard
- 1 Tablespoon dried rosemary
- 8 ounces crimini mushrooms
- 1 red onion, cut into 1-inch cubes (about 3 onion layers each)
- 2 green bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix the marinade ingredients together. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the marinade.
- Place the cubed meat into a large plastic zip-tight bag and pour all but the reserved marinade over it, then seal and squish to coat well. Place in the refrigerator for 1-6 hours to marinate. This is also a good time to place wooden skewers in water to soak.
- Meanwhile, boil the potatoes in a large pot of salted water until just tender enough to pierce with a fork, about 6-8 minutes. Drain well, then toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, rosemary, and mustard. Set aside.
- Preheat grill to high heat while preparing the kabobs. Chop all vegetables into chunks that are roughly the same size as the cubed steak, keeping 3 layers of onion together in each chunk. Drizzle vegetables with the reserved marinade.
- Thread alternating pieces of meat, vegetables, and potatoes until the skewers are filled, aiming for 4-5 pieces of steak on each skewer.
- Place kabobs on the grill directly over the heat and reduce heat to medium-high. Grill for 8-10 minutes, flipping every 2-3 minutes, until the meat is cooked medium-rare to medium and the vegetables start to char just around the edges.
- Remove from the grill and rest for 5 minutes before serving.
