Balsamic Sirloin Steak Skewers

A recipe for 4-6

1 ½ pounds lean sirloin steak cut into 2 inch cubes
¼ cup olive oil
¾ cup balsamic vinegar
3 cloves of garlic crushed
4 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Salt and pepper to taste
Bamboo skewers as needed
Balsamic Glaze as needed*

Pat the steak pieces dry and set aside. Meanwhile combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic and parsley to make the marinade. Season the marinade as desired with salt and pepper and add the steak pieces to the mixture. Allow at least two hours for marinating the place 4 pieces of the steak to each skewer. Grill or roast to desired doneness. Top with balsamic glaze prior to service.


* Balsamic glaze may be purchased in local markets but is also easy to make. Just place 3 cups of balsamic vinegar with a pinch of sugar in a sauce pan and reduce by two thirds. The remaining glaze should be slightly thick and very flavorful.
