Steak Marinade
- ½ cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- 14 ounces sirloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
Tomato Marinade
- 2 cups whole grape tomatoes
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, stems removed and chopped
Potatoes and Assembly
- 1½ pounds baby potatoes
- 6 metal or wooden skewers
- Preheat Grill and Prepare Skewers: Preheat your grill to medium heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water to prevent burning during grilling.
- Make Steak Marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, whole grain mustard, and minced garlic. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Marinate the Steak: Add the sirloin cubes to the marinade and toss to coat thoroughly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or up to overnight for best flavor absorption.
- Prepare Tomato Marinade: In another bowl, combine grape tomatoes with olive oil and chopped rosemary. Set this mixture aside to marinate briefly.
- Boil Potatoes: Place baby potatoes in a large pot and add enough water to cover them by 1 inch. Bring to a boil and cook the potatoes for about 8-10 minutes, just until they are fork-tender but not fully cooked. Drain and set aside.
- Assemble Kebabs: Thread the skewers in repeating order: start with a potato, then a piece of marinated steak, followed by a tomato. Repeat this sequence two more times, finishing the skewer with a potato piece.
- Grill Kebabs: Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking. Place the assembled kebabs on the grill and cook for about 5 minutes per side, totaling approximately 10 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the steak; it should remain juicy.
Notes
- Soaking wooden skewers prevents them from burning on the grill.
- Marinate steak for longer if you want a deeper flavor penetration.
- Par-cooking the potatoes saves grilling time and ensures they cook evenly on the grill.
- Use metal skewers if you want a sturdier option that won’t require soaking.
- Adjust seasoning in the marinade according to taste preferences.
- Serve immediately after grilling for best texture and flavor.
