  • 1/2 medium shallot, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice tips & tricks
  • 1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp. brown sugar, such as demerara
  • 1/2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp. hot sauce, such as Cholula®
  • 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 tsp. paprika
  • freshly ground black pepper, to taste (I always use mixed peppercorns)

SHISH KEBABS

  • 1 lb. cross rib steak, largely cubed

  • 16 pieces red pepper, washed and cut about 2-inch x 2-inch
  • 16 pieces red onion, cut about 2-inch x 2-inch

Directions

  • In a medium bowl, combine mustard, oils, yogurt, rosemary, garlic, shallot, lemon juice, vinegar, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, cayenne pepper, paprika and black pepper; whisk until well blended
  • Place cubed beef in a large re-sealable plastic bag and pour marinade over. Close the bag and massage the meat with marinade until well coated.
  • Transfer to the refrigerator for no more than 2 hours
  • Skewer the protein and veggies, starting with mushroom, red pepper, red onion, tomato, beef then red pepper, red onion, tomato, beef; repeat with mushroom and so on.
  • Brush the vegetables with the remaining marinade; discard the rest
  • Preheat the barbecue to 550-600ºF.
  • Place shish kebabs on hot grill and turn a 1/4 rotation every 2 1/2 minutes, closing the lid each time. Makes 4 skewers plus a meat skewer for extra beef.
