Make Steak and Shrimp Shish Kabobs the next time you grill this summer!
Our daughters love shish kabobs and this recipe is a fun way to make them smile. Along with the steak and shrimp, I opted for chunks of zucchini, green peppers, onions, and mushrooms, but you could also add cherry or grape tomatoes or fresh pineapple.
The teriyaki marinade sauce is amazing and gives the meat and vegetables a wonderful flavor. When you’re marinating your meat, be sure to put the plastic bag in a large bowl to protect your refrigerator from accidental spills. Cook your steak to your desired degree of doneness, but 12-18 minutes ought to do the trick.
In a large bowl, combine teriyaki sauce, pineapple juice, brown sugar, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and pepper. Pour half into Ziplock bag and add beef. Seal and set inside a large bowl to keep from having an accident spill. Refrigerate for 6-8 hours. Refrigerate remaining marinade.
On metal skewers, alternately thread beef, shrimp, vegetables, and pineapple. Set aside.
In small saucepan, combine 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch with remaining marinade, whisking until smooth. Bring to a boil and cook for 1-2 minutes until sauce is thickened.
Grill kabobs on hot coals for 6-8 minutes, turning once. Baste with sauce. Continue turning and basting for 8-10 minutes or until beef reaches desired doneness. Makes 4-6 servings.
