Ingredients
  

For the beef skewers
  • 500 g beef steak, cut into cubes Lean cuts like sirloin or tenderloin recommended.
  • 2 tbsp olive oil Heart-healthy fat for flavor and moisture.
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce Opt for low-sodium for a healthier choice.
  • 1 tsp paprika Contributes color and flavor.
  • 1 tsp garlic powder Enhances savory taste.
  • 1 tsp onion powder Adds depth to the marinade.
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper Adds subtle heat.
  • 1 tsp salt Enhances flavor; use as needed.
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice Brightens flavors of the marinade.
For the fries and salad
  • 4 large potatoes, cut into fries Use sweet potatoes for a healthier option.
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil For frying the potatoes; consider using less.
  • 2 cups shredded lettuce Adds volume and fiber.
  • 1 slice tomato Freshness and vitamins.
  • 1/2 slice red onion Adds crunch and sweetness.
  • 4 pieces cherry tomatoes Garnish or for freshness.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice.
  2. Add the cubed beef to the bowl and toss well until evenly coated. Let the beef marinate for at least 30 minutes.
Cooking
  1. Thread the marinated beef cubes onto skewers, leaving space between each piece.
  2. Preheat grill to high heat. Grill the skewers for about 8-10 minutes, turning until all sides are charred and juicy.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat, and fry the cut potatoes until golden and crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
Serving
  1. Plate the grilled beef skewers with fries. Add shredded lettuce, sliced tomato, and red onion.

Notes

Consider marinating the beef overnight for better flavor. Storage: leftovers can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. For a vegetarian version, swap beef with barbecue tofu veggie skewers.
