Skirt Steak Shishlik Recipe

Preparation and Grilling

1. 1

   Prepare the Marinade

   In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

2. 2

   Marinate the Steak

   Add the skirt steak to the marinade, ensuring it is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

3. 3

   Prepare the Vegetables

   While the steak is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Cut the bell peppers and red onion into squares, and rinse the cherry tomatoes.

4. 4

   Assemble the Skewers

   After marinating, remove the steak from the marinade and cut it into 1-inch pieces. Thread the steak pieces onto the soaked wooden skewers, alternating with pieces of bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes.

5. 5

   Preheat the Grill

   Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Ensure the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.

6. 6

   Grill the Skewers

   Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the steak is cooked to your desired level of doneness and the vegetables are tender.

7. 7

   Serve

   Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or side dish.
