Grilled Meat and Veggie Skewers

1.If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.

2.Cut the raw meat into bite-sized cubes and place them in a bowl.

3.Add olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to the meat. Mix well to coat the meat evenly with the marinade. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

4.While the meat is marinating, prepare the vegetables by cutting them into appropriate sizes for skewering.

5.Once the meat is marinated, take the skewers and start assembling them. Alternate between pieces of meat and vegetables, creating a colorful pattern. For example, start with a piece of meat, then add a bell pepper chunk, followed by a cherry tomato, and continue until the skewer is filled, leaving some space at the ends for handling.

6.Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, heat it over medium-high heat on the stove.

7.Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat is cooked through and has nice grill marks, and the vegetables are tender.

8.Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
