These kabobs were a little too dry for my taste. I think I would have preferred to cook them for a shorter amount of time.

These kabobs were easy to make and turned out great! I used a variety of fruit, including pineapple, mango, and kiwi. The citrus marinade really enhanced the flavor of the beef.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The citrus marinade is tangy and bright, while the fruit adds a nice sweetness. The beef is cooked perfectly and is so tender.
