STEAK KEBABS
[Serves 4) 

Ingredients: 

2 T. reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 T. honey
1 tsp. ground ginger
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 tsp. grated lemon peel
¼ tsp. crushed hot red pepper flakes
12 oz. boneless sirloin steak, trimmed & cut into 1-inch cubes
8 cherry tomatoes
4 lg. mushrooms, cut in half
1 bell pepper, cored, seeded, cut into 8 squares 

In shallow glass dish, combine soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic, lemon peel, and red pepper flakes.  Mix well.  Add beef; stir to coat.  Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 1-2 hours, stirring occasionally.  Preheat broiler.  Remove beef from the marinade.  Using four 10” metal skewers, alternately thread beef, tomatoes, mushrooms, and bell pepper.  Place on broiler pan.  Broil 2” from heat, turning 2-3 times, until meat is medium-rare and vegetables are lightly browned, about 10 minutes.  Serve immediately.

**You can marinate the beef and assemble skewers up to 1 day in advance.  Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to cook.

**Keep the heat out of the house and cook kebabs on a grill. Recommend placing mesh under the kebabs to keep them from falling through the grate and easier turning. Keep a close eye on them when grilling to prevent burning (honey).

**For more color, use green, yellow, and orange bell pepper. Personally, I prefer not to use green bell peppers in favor of the sweeter bells. 🙂

Happy Eating!
