Ingredients

For the Marinade:

  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp sriracha or another hot sauce
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp chilli powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt

For the Kebabs:

  • 700g beef sirloin or chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 pineapple, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 red onion, cut into chunks
  • 1 courgette, sliced into thick rounds
  • Wooden or metal skewers (if wooden, soak in water for 30 minutes before using)

Method

  • Step 1 : Prepare the Marinade:

    In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, sriracha, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, smoked paprika, ground cumin, chilli powder, ground ginger, black pepper, and salt. Mix thoroughly to combine.

    Add the cubed BBQ meat to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for maximum flavour.

  • Step 2 : Assemble the Kebabs:

    Preheat your BBQ grill to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated meat onto the skewers, alternating with red and green bell peppers, pineapple chunks, red onion, and courgette slices for a mix of sweet, spicy, and savoury flavours. Brush any remaining marinade over the assembled kebabs.

  • Step 3 : Grill the Kebabs:

    Place the kebabs on the preheated grill. Grill for 12-15 minutes, turning every few minutes to ensure even cooking and a nice char on the outside.

    Check that the meat is cooked through and the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

  • Step 4 : Serve:

    Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve hot with sides like couscous, a fresh cucumber salad, or grilled corn on the cob.

    Enjoy your sweet and spicy BBQ kebabs, perfect for a summer garden party or a flavourful weeknight meal!
