Garlic Butter Steak Kabobs

These skewers have a flavorful marinade and grill up tender and juicy on the BBQ! Once cooked we drizzle with our fave garlic butter (optional) before serving! So good!

Grilled Garlic Steak Kabobs

There are so many reasons to love kabobs!

This recipe is a true main dish, made with simple red onion between lots of juicy bites of steak!
This dish goes well with grilled vegetables, on a salad, or even potato packets, a whole meal on the BBQ!
The simple marinade works well on other meats such as shrimp (only marinate a short time), so why not make some surf n’ turf?
Who doesn’t love kabobs in the summer? Marinated meat & veggies on the grill, yes, please!

Ingredients/Variations

The marinade for this dish is both simple and flavorful!

STEAK Use sirloin steak cubes, or for something super special go for ribeye. Kabobs don’t need the most expensive cut of meat, the marinade helps to tenderize it!

MARINADE Butter adds flavor and brows well while olive oil keeps the consistency of the marinade. Lemon juice and tomato paste both tenderize and add amazing flavor.

GARNISH Don’t skip the fresh parsley butter garnish! It really adds extra flavor and color, and there’s nothing like fresh parsley and melted butter drizzled on freshly grilled steak. Yum!

How to Grill Garlic Steak Kabobs

Tender and delish steak kabobs are simple to make with this fail-proof recipe.

Combine marinade ingredients (per recipe below).
Prepare steak & marinate for up to two hours.
Thread meat onto skewers, alternating with chunks of onion.
Grill, turning occasionally according to recipe instructions.

Once grilled let the steak kabobs rest a few minutes and then drizzle with the remaining butter mixture.

No Grill? No Problem!

This recipe is as easy as anything to bake in the oven, too. Here’s the simple method:

Prepare the recipe below as directed.
Preheat the oven to 350°F, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cook kebabs for 20-30 minutes, turning once.
Rest meat for at least 5 minutes to seal in the juices. Drizzle with extra melted butter & parsley before serving.

For medium-rare steak, cook until internal temperature is 135°F, for medium it should be 145°F, and for well-done 150°F.

Tips for the Best Kebabs

If using wooden skewers, just be sure to soak them in water before using, to prevent the wood from burning. It makes all the difference!
Take the skewers off of the grill a few degrees before you reach the desired temperature, the temperature will continue to rise as they rest.
Don’t skip resting the meat before serving.

How to Use Leftovers

If there are any leftovers, they will keep for 3-4 days in the refrigerator.

They taste great chopped or sliced into a chef’s salad or steak salad. Or simply warm the skewers up in an air fryer or frying pan. It also tastes great added to Quick & Easy Beef Stroganoff or Steak Tacos.

Frozen cooked steak will maintain flavor for 2-3 months in the freezer.
