Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2 pounds beef sirloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 0.5 cup peanut oil
  • 0.25 cup soy sauce low sodium preferred
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, freshly grated

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • In a large bowl, whisk together peanut oil, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, ground cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, lemon juice, and brown sugar.
  • Add the beef cubes to the marinade, tossing to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best flavor.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat and soak wooden skewers in water to prevent burning.
  • Thread marinated beef, red onion chunks, and red bell pepper chunks alternately onto the skewers.
  • Grill the kabobs for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until beef is cooked to desired doneness and vegetables are tender.
  • Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

For an authentic taste, serve with jollof rice or fried plantains. Leftover kabobs can be stored refrigerated up to 2 days.
