INGREDIENT SUBSTITUTIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
While I always make these kabobs in the oven with the ingredients listed above, there's definitely some wiggle room for you to swap some ingredients to suit your preferences.
For instance, when it comes to vegetables, feel free to switch 'em up depending on what looks good at the grocery store. I personally like to alternate between red onions, bell peppers, and cherry tomatoes.
As for the steak, if you can't find top sirloin steak, you can swap it for sirloin tips or strip steak. Either one works great to make the best beef kabobs in the oven ever!
HOW TO MAKE STEAK KABOBS IN THE OVEN
Alright, now it's time for the fun part - making the beef skewers!
And not to sound like a broken record, but it really is about as easy as it gets to make these beef kabobs in the oven. The hardest part is going to be waiting for them to marinade!
Anyway, let's stop wasting time and get cooking!
STEP 1: MAKE THE MARINADE
First things first, you'll want to take out a large bowl and combine the soy sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, water, salt, and pepper. Then, once you've got all of your marinade ingredients added to the bowl, you can give them a stir until they're combined.
STEP 2: MARINADE THE STEAK
Next, you can add the steak to the marinade, cover the bowl, and put it in the refrigerator. You'll want to marinate the steak for at least one hour and up to four hours in the fridge.
When the steak is almost done marinating, soak the wooden skewers - bamboo skewers - for 30 minutes in water.
STEP 3: ASSEMBLE THE KABOBS
Now it's time to assemble kabobs, but first, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Then you can alternate adding the steak and veggies onto the soaked skewers.
Once you've assembled the kabobs, place them onto an ungreased baking sheet and gently brush the beef with more marinade.
STEP 4: BAKE THE KABOBS
Lastly, you can bake the kabobs in the oven for 30-35 minutes, turning them every 10 minutes so they cook evenly. When they're fully cooked, allow them to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Finally, serve the skewers warm with your favorite dipping sauce and choice of side, and enjoy!
HOW TO STORE STEAK KABOBS
This recipe for steak kabobs in the oven makes about 6 servings. So, it'll make the perfect amount for a big family dinner or even meal prep for the week!
Speaking of meal prep, if you have leftovers, the best way to store the steak is in the fridge in an airtight container for about 3-4 days.
Alternatively, if you want to store your oven baked steak kabobs for even longer, you can freeze them in an airtight container or freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.
HOW TO REHEAT STEAK KABOBS
When you're ready to enjoy your leftover kabobs again, you can either eat them cold or hot - it's great both ways!
That said, if you want to reheat the kabobs, just transfer them to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and heat them in the oven for about 12-15 minutes at 275°F.
