Provided by Sunny Anderson

Time 2h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup hot (spicy) honey
1/2 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon red curry seasoning
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds beef tenderloin, cut into 1-inch chunks
4 pineapple rings (canned or fresh), cut into 1-inch chunks
Yellow rice, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Add the honey, orange juice, olive oil, salt, red curry seasoning and black pepper to a medium bowl. Whisk until the honey and oil are dispersed. Reserve 1/4 cup of the marinade, then divide the remaining marinade in half between two resealable plastic bags. Add the beef chunks to one bag and the pineapple to the other bag. Seal both bags and let rest at room temperature for 2 hours. If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in water while the beef and pineapple are marinating.
  • Preheat the grill to 400 degrees F.
  • Remove or strain the beef and pineapple chunks from the bags and discard the marinade. Pat everything dry. Build the skewers by alternating between the beef and pineapple, placing 3 to 4 pieces of each on each skewer. Place them over the direct heat of the grill and cook on each side for 1 to 2 minutes. Brush the skewers with the reserved marinade. Remove from the grill and serve with yellow rice, if using.

MOM'S BEEF SHISH KABOBS



Mom's Beef Shish Kabobs image

My Mom has cooked this recipe for as long as I remember. Now that I live on my own, I can't wait to go back home over the holidays to have this excellent dish. Mom would probably be upset that I gave it away, but it is so delicious that I think everyone should have a chance to experience it. Technically shish kabobs use lamb, so these should be called beef kabobs, but this is the family recipe and what we call it.
