Kangaroo meat is a healthy and flavourful option for those looking for a unique culinary experience. This dish of kangaroo meat skewers with vegetables in a red wine marinade is a great addition to any kangaroo recipes collection. The marinade, made with red wine, adds a depth of flavour and makes the kangaroo meat super tender. Great for grilling or barbecuing, but can also be made in a frying pan.

Ingredients 

  • 10-15 bamboo skewers depending on their length
  • 1 kg kangaroo 5-6 medium fillets / 2.2 lbs., cut into 2-cm cubes
  • 2 medium zucchinis sliced into 1 cm disks
  • 1 red capsicum bell pepper, cut into 2 to 3-cm squares
  • 1 small yellow capsicum bell pepper, cut into 2 to 3-cm squares
  • 1 red onion cut into 2-3 cm square

For the marinade

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup dry red wine
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • 1 tablespoon dry mixed herbs e.g. Italian herbs
  • 1 garlic clove finely chopped

Glaze sauce

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  • Soak the bamboo skewers in water for 10 minutes, to prevent them from burning.
  • Cut kangaroo fillets into medium, bite-size pieces. Cut onion length way into quarters. Cut each quarter in half to get square-shaped pieces, suitable for skewing.
  • Mix together the marinade ingredients and add the meat. Mix to coat evenly and stand aside for 30 minutes to an hour. Overnight is even better.
  • Add diced vegetables to the meat and stir through. Thread the meat pieces and vegetables onto the bamboo skewers, leaving 1-cm at each end of the skewer. Any leftover vegetables can be grilled alongside or after the skewers are done.
  • Preheat a barbecue grill or a large frying pan to high and spray with olive oil or brush with coconut oil. Grill the skewers for 4 minutes on each side, rotating, cover the barbecue hood for 1–2 minutes during that time.
  • Mix together the glaze and brush over the skewers at the end of cooking. Rest skewers for a few minutes before serving.
