GRASS-FED BEEF SIRLOIN KEBABS

This quick and easy dish is great for backyard cookouts. Feel free to prep the sauce and skewer the beef ahead of time. The thin strips cook in a flash and stay very tender—low-fat grass fed sirloin can be tough if served in large chunks. If you can’t find top sirloin, bottom round or strip steaks will also work. To get 16 even slices from the steak, cut the steak in half, then cut the halves in half to make four quarters. Slice each quarter into 4 strips.
