Beef marinade:
- In a bowl combine the chopped garlic, thyme, rosemary and olive oil. Marinate the beef tenderloin cubes in the marinade.
Beef brochettes:
- Heat your grill to high.
- Skewer one piece of beef onto each skewer, followed by one round of chorizo, one bay leaf and one lemon slice. Repeat again to fill the skewer.
- Once all components have been skewered, season with salt and black pepper.
- Grill the meat, turning once for four to six minutes until golden brown, slightly charred and cooked to medium-rare. Transfer brochettes to a plate and rest for five minutes before serving.
- Note: If Portuguese Chorizo is not readily available, the recipe can be substituted with Spanish Chorizo or it can be left out.
