Ingredients
Scale
Steak Marinade Ingredients:
- 400 grams (14 ounces) sirloin steak, cut into 2.5 cm (1 inch) cubes
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Tomato Marinade Ingredients:
- 2 cups whole grape tomatoes
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, stems removed and chopped
Potato Ingredients:
- 700 grams (24.7 ounces) baby potatoes
- 6 metal or wooden skewers
Instructions
- Prepare the grill to medium heat (around 375°F). Submerge wooden skewers in water to prevent burning during cooking.
- Create a robust marinade by whisking balsamic vinegar, honey, whole grain mustard, and minced garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Coat steak cubes thoroughly and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes to enhance flavor absorption.
- Prepare tomato mixture by combining grape tomatoes with olive oil and freshly chopped rosemary. Allow ingredients to meld while marinating.
- Boil baby potatoes in water until slightly tender, approximately 8-10 minutes. Ensure potatoes remain firm and not mushy. Drain and let cool momentarily.
- Construct kebabs by alternating ingredients: start with potato, then steak, followed by tomato. Repeat pattern three times, ensuring balanced distribution and visual appeal.
- Lightly oil grill grates to prevent sticking. Carefully position kebabs over medium heat, grilling each side for 4-5 minutes. Rotate once to achieve even caramelization and prevent overcooking. Total cooking time should be 8-10 minutes for medium-rare steak.
Notes
- Marinate Ahead: Let the steak sit in the marinade overnight for deeper, more intense flavor that will make your taste buds dance.
- Prevent Wooden Skewer Burning: Soaking wooden skewers in water prevents them from charring or catching fire during grilling, ensuring a smooth cooking process.
- Potato Perfection: Par-boiling potatoes before grilling ensures they’re cooked through and crispy on the outside without becoming mushy or undercooked.
- Meat Temperature Tip: Use a meat thermometer to check steak doneness – medium-rare is around 135°F, ensuring juicy and tender kebabs every time.
