Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh oregano or 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh marjoram or 1 teaspoon dried marjoram
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1-1/4 pounds beef top sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 3 medium zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch slices
  • 32 small fresh mushrooms
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 8 cherry tomatoes

Method

  • In a small bowl, combine the first 7 ingredients. Pour 2/3 cup marinade into a large bowl; add the beef. Turn to coat; cover and refrigerate for 4 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade for basting.
  • Drain and discard marinade from beef. On four metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread the beef, zucchini and mushrooms. Spoon over uncooked kabobs with reserved marinade; sprinkle with salt. Broil 4 in. from heat for 5 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness, basting frequently with reserved marinade. Place a tomato on each skewer before serving.
