Ingredients:

Steak Marinade:

• ½ cup balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 14 ounces sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes

Tomato Marinade:

• 2 cups whole grape tomatoes
• ⅓ cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped

Potatoes:

• 1½ pounds baby potatoes
• Water, for boiling

For Assembly:

• 6 metal or wooden skewers

Directions:

1. Prepare the Steak Marinade:

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, mustard, and minced garlic. Season with salt and pepper.
2. Add the cubed steak to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.

2. Prepare the Tomato Marinade:

1. In a small bowl, combine grape tomatoes, olive oil, and chopped rosemary. Set aside to marinate while you prepare the other components.

3. Prepare the Potatoes:

1. Place the baby potatoes in a large pot and cover with water by about an inch. Bring to a boil and cook until just fork-tender, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.

4. Assemble the Kebabs:

1. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
2. Preheat your grill to medium heat.
3. On each skewer, thread the ingredients in the following order: potato, steak cube, tomato. Repeat this pattern twice, ending with a potato.
4. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

5. Grill the Kebabs:

1. Place the assembled skewers on the preheated grill.
2. Grill for about 5 minutes on each side, turning every 4 minutes, until the steak reaches your desired level of doneness and the potatoes are heated through.

• Vegetarian Option: Replace the steak with firm tofu cubes marinated in the same balsamic mixture for a plant-based alternative.
• Additional Vegetables: Incorporate bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms between the meat and potatoes on the skewers for added flavor and variety.

FAQs:

Can I use a different type of vinegar for the marinade?

Balsamic vinegar provides a unique sweetness and depth of flavor. While other vinegars can be used, they will alter the taste profile of the dish.

How do I prevent the wooden skewers from burning?

Soaking wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling helps prevent them from catching fire.

Can I bake these kebabs instead of grilling?

Yes, you can bake the assembled kebabs in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 15-20 minutes, turning halfway through, until the steak is cooked to your liking.

What can I serve with these kebabs?

These kebabs pair well with sides like garlic bread, a fresh salad, or grilled vegetables.

Can I marinate the steak overnight?

Marinating the steak overnight will enhance its flavor and tenderness. Ensure the marinating container is covered and refrigerated.
