Instructions
Cut meat into one inch cubes.
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, lime juice, paprika, cumin, salt, pepper, oregano, and parsley.
Add steak cubes and toss to coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably 2–4 hours for more flavor.
If using skewers and grilling or baking, soak wooden skewers in water for 20 minutes to prevent burning. Preheat grill to medium-high, or oven to 425°F (220°C), or heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat on the stovetop.
Add olive oil to the skillet. Once oil is hot, sear steak bites in batches (do not overcrowd), about 2–3 minutes per side, until browned and cooked to your desired doneness.
Sprinkle with extra parsley before serving.
For skewers (grilled or baked)
Thread marinated steak cubes onto skewers. Remember to soak wooden skewers in water for 20 minutes before using.
Grill for about 2–3 minutes per side, or bake at 425°F (220°C) for about 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until cooked to your liking.
Notes
Serve with Brazilian-style rice and beans on the side. You can also add chimichurri or a lime wedge for extra flavor.
These steak bites are best when freshly made, as they’ll be super juicy and tender.
