Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Cut the 1 lb beef sirloin into 1-inch cubes and the 1 medium red onion into wedges. Thread beef, pineapple chunks, and onion onto skewers, alternating.

  2. Step 2

    Brush the skewers with 2 tbsp olive oil and season with 0.5 tsp salt and 0.25 tsp black pepper.

  3. Step 3

    Grill over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until beef is browned and cooked to your liking and pineapple has grill marks, about 8-10 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Remove from grill and let rest for 2 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro if desired before serving.
