Instructions
- Mix oregano, cilantro, garlic, seasoning, cumin, paprika, oil, water and vinegar in small bowl. Reserve ¼ cup (50 mL) for brushing. Place meat in resealable plastic bag or glass dish. Add remaining marinade; turn to coat well.
- Refrigerate 15 minutes or longer for extra flavour. Remove meat from marinade. Discard any remaining marinade. Thread meat onto skewers.
- Grill skewers over medium-high heat 8 to 10 minutes or until meat is cooked to desired doneness, turning occasionally and brushing with reserved marinade.
- Tip: If using wooden skewers, soak thoroughly in water for at least 30 minutes before threading with meat. This prevents them from burning when on the grill.
- Tip: Serve Brazilian Meat Skewers with Creamy Green Chile Cilantro Sauce, Guava Mango Ají Amarillo Sauce, Red Chimichurri Sauce or Grilled Tomato Coconut BBQ Sauce.
