For a richer flavor, marinate the beef overnight. If you don't have rum, orange juice can be substituted. Serve kabobs immediately for the best flavor and texture. Add other vegetables to your kabobs, such as zucchini or mushrooms.
Embark on a culinary adventure with these vibrant Orange Beef Kabobs! Tender sirloin, infused with zesty citrus notes and a hint of spice, is grilled to perfection alongside caramelized orange and pineapple parcels. A symphony of sweet, savory, and smoky flavors that will transport your taste buds.
Marinate the Beef: In a large freezer bag, combine the sirloin cubes, yogurt, orange zest, ginger, and cayenne pepper. Massage well to ensure the beef is fully coated. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. (2 hours +)
Prepare the Grill: Preheat your outdoor grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grate to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)
Assemble the Kabobs: Remove the beef from the marinade, shaking off any excess. Thread the marinated beef cubes, red onion wedges, and red bell pepper pieces onto skewers. Brush generously with olive oil. (15 minutes)
Create the Fruit Parcels: Place the pineapple cubes and orange segments in the center of a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Dot with butter, sprinkle with brown sugar, and drizzle with rum. Bring the long sides of the foil together and seal tightly; fold up and seal each end to create a secure packet. (10 minutes)
Grill the Fruit: Place the foil packet of fruit directly on the preheated grill. Cook, covered, for approximately 10 minutes, allowing the fruit to soften and caramelize in its own juices. (10 minutes)
Grill the Kabobs: Place the assembled beef kabobs alongside the fruit packet on the grill. Cook, turning occasionally, until the meat is cooked to your liking and the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Be careful not to overcook. (10 minutes)
Serve: Remove from the grill. Serve hot. Great over rice or couscous.
