Marinated Spanish Beef Kebabs

Spanish beef recipe using traditional Spanish ingredients such as smoked paprika, olive oil and herbs. These kebabs are ideal for the barbecue and are hot and spicy. Other vegetables, such as mushrooms, green peppers, tomatoes, etc., can also be used.

Serves 4

2kg (4.5lb) beef (cubed)
4 garlic cloves
2 teaspoons hot smoked paprika
250ml (15 fl oz) olive oil
250ml (15 fl oz) wine vinegar
1 red bell pepper
1 large onion
Cracked black pepper
Thyme or mixed herbs

Method:

Place the cubed beef into a large dish and set aside.

Using a food processor, blend together the garlic, herbs, pepper, vinegar, oil and paprika.

Pour the spicy marinade over the beef and turn well so that all the meat is covered.

Place in the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours.

To make the kebabs, roughly chop the pepper and onion then thread over kebab sticks alternating with the beef.

Retain any excess marinade as this will be used for basting the kebabs while on the grill.

Barbecue the kebabs over hot coals for 10 to 12 minutes turning and basting frequently.

Serve with fresh crispy salad, boiled potatoes, bread and olive oil.
