  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 lime, zested and juiced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (or more to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more to taste)

Directions

  1. In a large glass or ceramic bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, lime zest, garlic, cumin, red pepper flakes, and chipotle pepper.
  2. Add the beef sirloin cubes to the marinade and toss to coat evenly.
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 2 hours, allowing the sirloin to marinate.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate to prevent sticking.
  5. Remove the sirloin from the marinade, discarding the marinade.
  6. Thread the marinated sirloin, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and onion onto the skewers, alternating between the ingredients.
  7. Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for about 4 minutes per side, or until the sirloin is browned and the vegetables are tender.
