Kangaroo & Vegetables Skewers In Red Wine Marinade

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)
- 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)
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- 1
Soak the bamboo skewers in water for 10 minutes, to prevent them from burning.
- 2
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.
