Prepare the Skewers:

Preheat grill to medium-high heat.

Thread shrimp, beef cubes, cherry tomatoes, and mushrooms alternately onto skewers.

Brush the skewers with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

Grill the skewers for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until the shrimp are pink and opaque and the beef is cooked to your liking.

Make the Chimichurri Sauce:

In a bowl, combine parsley, oregano, garlic, olive oil, red wine vinegar, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

Let the sauce sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
