Southwestern Grilled Kebabs
Ingredients
  • 3 cups Mexican lager (such as Negra™ Modelo)
  • 3/4 cup coarsely chopped white onion
  • 3/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1/4 cup minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon hot salsa
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • 4 pounds beef tenderloin, cut into 1-inch cubes, or more as needed
  • 1 fresh pineapple, cored and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 cups coarsely chopped red onion
  • 2 green bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 12 white mushrooms
  • 12 cherry tomatoes
  • (12-inch) skewers, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes
Instructions
1
Combine lager, finely chopped white onion, fresh cilantro leaves, lime juice, minced garlic, salsa, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl. Thoroughly mix the ingredients until they are perfectly combined to create a well-balanced marinade. Gently add the beef to the bowl, ensuring it is fully submerged in the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a period of 6 hours to overnight, allowing the flavors to meld together.
2
Thread the marinated beef, chunks of pineapple, red onion, green bell pepper pieces, mushrooms, and cherry tomatoes alternately through skewers. Arrange the shish kebabs on a baking sheet or jelly roll pan in a single layer.
3
Preheat the grill to medium heat and lightly brush the grill grate with oil. Grill the shish kebabs until the beef reaches a firm and reddish-pink color, with a juicy center. This should take approximately 4 minutes per side.
