- Take the marinated beef out of the fridge.
- Start assembling your skewers by alternating beef cubes with different vegetables. Have fun creating different combinations.
- Once ready, place on top of your baking dish and bake for 30 minutes in a pre-heated oven at 180 degrees Celsius.
- Drizzle some Belmorso Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
- Proceed to grilling them on your grill pan or barbeque.
