These cumin-scented beef kebabs offer a sophisticated twist on the classic barbecue skewer. The combination of earthy cumin, aromatic coriander and fresh oregano creates a deep, savoury flavour profile that perfectly complements the rich sirloin. By marinating the beef for several hours, you ensure every bite is tender and infused with a gentle heat from the cayenne, making this a standout choice for summer entertaining or a high-protein midweek meal.
As a diabetes-friendly option, this dish focuses on lean protein and heart-healthy olive oil, avoiding the sugary glazes often found in grilled meats. The lack of heavy carbohydrates makes it an excellent choice for those managing blood sugar levels without sacrificing flavour. Serve these skewers alongside a vibrant roasted red pepper and walnut spread for a nutritious, Mediterranean-inspired dinner that is both satisfying and light.

Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (high heat for gas); see Grilling Procedure . Thread about 4 pieces of beef onto each skewer, leaving small spaces between pieces, then transfer to a tray.
Oil grill rack, then grill beef, covered only if using a gas grill, turning, until browned but still pink inside, 4 to 5 minutes.
