Grilled Beef Skewers with Chimichurri Sauce

Ingredients:

For the Skewers:

1 1/2 lbs beef sirloin or ribeye, cut into 1-inch cubes 
2 tbsp olive oil 
1 tsp smoked paprika 
1 tsp garlic powder 
Salt and black pepper to taste 
Wooden skewers, soaked in water
For the Chimichurri Sauce:

1 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped 
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped (optional) 
4 garlic cloves, minced 
1/3 cup olive oil 
2 tbsp red wine vinegar 
1 tsp red chili flakes (adjust to taste) 
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Let’s Make It Happen:

Prep the Beef:

Toss the beef cubes with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate for at least 20 minutes.
Make the Chimichurri Sauce:

In a bowl, mix parsley, cilantro, garlic, olive oil, red wine vinegar, chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Stir well and let the flavors meld while preparing the skewers.
Assemble the Skewers:

Thread the marinated beef cubes onto the soaked skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
Grill to Perfection:

Heat the grill to medium-high. Grill the skewers for 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare, or cook to your desired doneness.
Serve with Chimichurri:

Drizzle the fresh chimichurri sauce over the hot skewers or serve it on the side for dipping.
Tips for Extra Magic:

Add bell peppers, onions, or cherry tomatoes to the skewers for extra flavor and color. 
Marinate the beef overnight for deeper flavor. 
Serve with crusty bread or rice for a complete meal.
