Place the steaks in a shallow bowl. Mix the marinade ingredients together and pour over the steaks. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours, or overnight.

Thread the steaks onto 4 short metal or wooden skewers (previously soaked in water) and cook on a prepared barbecue or preheated grill for 2-4 minutes, turning occasionally until the meat juices run clear.

Garnish with extra flat-leaf parsley and serve with the chicory salad and foccacia or walnut bread.
