INGREDIENTS

Steak Marinade Ingredients

• ¼ cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• ½ tablespoon dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• Salt and Pepper to taste

Shish Kabob Ingredients

• 2 pounds sirloin steak
• 1 medium zucchini
• 1 Japanese eggplant – same size as zucchini
• 1 red bell pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

Meat Preparations

• Cut your sirloin steak into 1-inch cubes.
• Whisk together all of the ingredients for the steak marinade in a bowl. You should whisk until the sugar has dissolved and no visible lumps of mustard remain.
• Add the cubed steak and marinade into an airtight plastic bag – squeezing out as much air as possible – and store in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight. (Also soak your bamboo skewers in water overnight to prevent them from burning)

Vegetable Preparation

• Slice the zucchini and eggplant into coins that are ¼ inch thick – if you choose to cut them thicker or thinner, make sure that they are all the same size to help with even cooking.
• Deseed the bell pepper and cut it into pieces that are the same size as the other veggies. 

ASSEMBLY AND COOKING

Before assembling, make sure you have taken your steak out of the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature before cooking. To assemble, take all your ingredients and thread them onto the skewer, alternating between the meat and vegetables. Grill the kebabs over a medium heat, turning them to cook all four sides, until the outside is nicely browned, and everything is properly cooked through. (About 10-15 minutes).
