Brazilian Beef Kebabs
Tender juicy steak, marinated in herbs and spices and then grilled to a crusty perfection. These Brazilian Beef Kebabs are a great mid-week meal. The beef is packed with flavour and with a couple of super simple sides you have a great meal with really very little effort!
Ingredients
- 1 red onion (See notes)
- 60 ml fresh orange juice (¼ cup)
- 1 lime
- 60 ml olive oil (¼ cup)
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley
- ¼ teaspoon ground fennel
- 1 kg beef rump steak
- Lemon wedges to serve
Instructions
- Place the onion (see notes) in the food processor along with the orange juice and the juice of the lime, blitz to a thick paste.
- Add in the olive oil, garlic, brown sugar, cumin, salt, paprika, cayenne pepper, black pepper, parsley and fennel, then blitz again until well combined.
- Trim the steak of any thick fat and then cut into large chunks.
- Place the steak and the marinade into a non-reactive bowl (or large zip lock bag) and marinate for 30 minutes.
- Remove the beef from the marinade and thread onto skewers.
- Get your grill (or BBQ) as hot as it will go, then add the skewers and cook for 4-5 minutes turning once until lightly charred.
- Serve with lemon wedges.
Notes
I like to cut a about a ¼ of the onion off and save this for my Brazilian Tomato Salad. That way I don't have to start a second onion. The marinade is just as good with a little less onion :-)
