Tender-licious!
If these kabobs don’t come out tender then you need to check your meat, and/or check your olive oil, because something is seriously wrong!
These Grilled Chipotle Steak Kabobs with Chimichurri Sauce are so moist they are falling off the skewer.
You can’t ever go wrong with marinating steak in extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice.
I started out with New York Strip Steaks cut into about 1 inch cubes.
I marinated everything with lemon zest and juice, extra virgin olive oil, crushed oregano, creole seasoning, garlic and onion powder and of course plenty of black pepper. The kicker was the minced chipotle peppers for that nice smokey flavor.
Don’t forget to soak them bamboo skewers, otherwise you will have a fire on your hands. Use any vegetables you like, I love squash and zucchini so that is what I used.
It’s time to grill these babies. Marinate them overnight if you want, I didn’t this time because I am hungry.
Time to start the chimichurri sauce.
Yes, they’re ready to EAT!
