Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • Juice of 1 grapefruit (about ½ cup)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 lb. boneless sirloin steak, cubed
  • 1 medium red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 yellow bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 12 oz. cherry or grape tomatoes

Instructions

  • For marinade, combine olive oil, wine, garlic, grapefruit juice, and chopped fresh thyme in small bowl. Pour ½ cup marinade over beef in large shallow baking dish or plastic bag; turn to coat. Cover, or close bag and marinate in refrigerator about 3 hours. Refrigerate remaining marinade.
  •  Remove beef from marinade, discarding marinade. Alternately thread beef, onions, peppers and tomatoes on skewers*. Season, if desired, with salt and black pepper.
  • Grill, turning once and brushing frequently with reserved marinade, 10 minutes or until desired doneness.
  • *If using wooden skewers, soak in water at least 30 minutes prior to use.

Notes

  • If preferred, thread vegetables on skewers separately from beef to ensure that they get done.
