Classic Beef Shish Kebabs

Submitted by Abby Girl

"The trick with these kebabs is to cook the meat separately from the vegetables so nothing overcooks."

 

• Ready In: 35mins
• Ingredients: 12
• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
• 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped

1. Combine 2 teaspoons oil, rosemary, and garlic in a large zip-top bag. Add beef; seal and marinate in refrigerator 1 hour, turning occasionally.

3. Combine remaining 1 teaspoon oil and juice in a large bowl. Add tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms, tossing to coat.

i bought some tenderloin tips on sale today and i didnt know what to do with them..there are only a few recipes which use the tips. I made these kabobs per recipe --my only changes are that i used small portobello mushrooms, red/yellow peppers and onions for the veggies. I cut my veggies large and my meat small so that I didnt need to precook the meat. Thanks Abby Girl for this great recipe
