Juicy sirloin steak cubes and tender jumbo shrimp seared on wooden skewers and basted with a rich, glossy garlic herb butter! The ultimate high-protein handheld feast. 🀀✨

  • Total Time: 25 mins
  • Yield: 4 (8 skewers) 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 lb jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 8 wooden skewers (soaked in water for 20 mins)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • salt and black pepper
  • For the Garlic Herb Butter:
  • 4 tbsp melted butter
  • 4 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped

Instructions

  1. Thread Skewers: Alternate steak cubes and jumbo shrimp onto skewers. Season generously all over with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Sear: Heat a grill pan or cast-iron skillet over high heat with 1 tbsp oil. Sear skewers for 3-4 minutes per side until steak is seared and shrimp is opaque.
  3. Baste: During the final minute of cooking, baste heavily with melted garlic herb butter. Serve immediately warm.
  4. Pro Tip: Cut the steak into uniform 1-inch cubes so they cook at the exact same pace as the jumbo shrimp without overcooking either protein.
