Instructions
- Step 1: In a medium bowl, combine 3 tbsp olive oil, 4 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp red wine vinegar, 1 cup finely chopped fresh parsley, 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh oregano, 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Stir to make the chimichurri marinade.
- Step 2: Add 1 lb of 1-inch cubed beef sirloin to the marinade, tossing to coat all pieces evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably 3 hours, to allow flavors to penetrate.
- Step 3: Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Thread the marinated beef cubes onto the soaked wooden skewers, distributing evenly.
- Step 4: Grill the beef skewers for 3-4 minutes per side until they are nicely charred on the outside but still juicy inside, reaching medium-rare to medium doneness.
- Step 5: Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving with additional chimichurri sauce spooned over the top.
