HONEY-GLAZED CHICKEN KABOBS

Steps:

SWORDFISH KABOBS WITH BALSAMIC GLAZE

Steps:

• If using wooden skewers, soak them in water in a casserole dish or baking sheet for 30 minutes prior to grilling. Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat; oil the grill grates with olive oil.
• Mix the balsamic, lemon juice and mustard in a small bowl. Add the olive oil in a slow stream while whisking. Season with salt and pepper.
• Thread the fish, fennel and tomatoes onto 8 skewers, alternating between fish and vegetables. There should be roughly 3 pieces of fish per skewer. Season all sides of each skewer with salt and pepper. Brush the balsamic mixture over all the skewers.
• Add the skewers to the grill and cook until there are clear grill marks on the flame side, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip the skewers and cook for an additional 3 to 5 minutes. Continue to rotate the skewers and cook on each side until all sides are cooked and have a slight char.
• Serve hot!

GRILLED BOURBON-GLAZED BEEF KABOBS

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. In 1-quart saucepan, mix 1 tablespoon of the bourbon, the teriyaki glaze, orange juice concentrate, brown sugar and crushed red pepper. Heat to boiling over medium heat; reduce heat to low. Simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally; remove from heat. Stir in remaining 1 tablespoon bourbon. Reserve 2 tablespoons glaze.
• In medium bowl, place beef, onion, mushrooms and bell pepper. Drizzle with oil; toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt; toss to coat. On each of two 10- to 12-inch metal skewers, thread beef, onion, mushrooms and bell pepper alternately, leaving 1/4-inch space between each piece.
• Cover and grill kabobs over medium heat 9 to 11 minutes, turning once and brushing with glaze during last 3 minutes, until beef is desired doneness and vegetables are tender.
• Just before serving, generously brush kabobs with reserved 2 tablespoons glaze.

MOM'S BEEF SHISH KABOBS

Steps:

• Whisk the vegetable oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, black pepper, and salt together in a bowl; pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the beef, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator 8 hours or overnight.
• Add the mushrooms to the bag, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and reseal the bag; marinate in the refrigerator another 8 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove the beef and mushrooms from the marinade, shaking off any excess liquid. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 10 minutes; set aside for basting.
• Thread pieces of green bell pepper, beef, red bell pepper, mushroom, and onion onto metal skewers, repeating until all ingredients are skewered.
• Cook the skewers on the preheated grill, turning frequently and brushing generously with the reserved marinade until nicely browned on all sides and the meat is no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes.

WINTER FRUIT KABOBS WITH PEACH GLAZE

Steps:

• On each of sixteen 8-inch skewers, thread 4 to 6 pieces of fruit, including grapes. Place skewers on large cookie sheet; set aside.
• In 1-quart saucepan, heat preserves, butter, liqueur and cinnamon over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until butter is melted. Brush about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of preserves mixture over kabobs; reserve remaining preserves mixture.
• Set oven control to broil. Broil kabobs with tops 4 to 6 inches from heat 2 minutes or until fruit is hot and glaze is bubbly. Serve warm or cold with remaining preserves mixture.

KABOB GLAZE

Steps:

• While grilling your kabobs combine these ingredients in a small bowl.
• Stir with a basting brush until the honey gets well incorporated. It will be almost like it melts into the Worcestershire and the cayenne gets mixed inches.
• Taste it. You can always add more cayenne to make them as zippy as you'd like but it's truly impossible to take the cayenne back out. The mixing will only take a minute or so and then it can sit until the kabobs are done.

HONEY GLAZED CHICKEN KABOBS

• Drain and discard marinade. On six- eight metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread chicken and vegetables. Grill, covered, over medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until chicken juices run clear, basting frequently with reserved marinade.
