Instructions
- Soak 8 bamboo skewers in warm water for 30 minutes, or use metal skewers.
- Place the diced beef into a zip lock bag and add in the marinade ingredients. Mix well until coated evenly and set aside to marinate.
- Preheat the grill.
- In the meantime, make the chimichurri sauce by placing all the ingredients in a food processor. Blitz repeatedly until the onion is minced well. Place in a small bowl and set aside.
- Assemble the skewers alternating the cubes of beef, cherry tomato, and onion slices. Place about 3-4 pieces of beef on each skewer.
- Grill the skewers over medium-high heat, rotating until the steak is nicely charred and cooked to your preference. Serve the beef skewers with the smoky chimichurri sauce.
