Coca Cola Sweet And Sour Glazed Beef Kabobs Recipes

MARINATED BEEF KABOBS

Steps:

• Cut the beef into 3.25cm / 1.3" wide cubes.
• Mix Marinade in a bowl. Add beef. Marinate for 1 - 24 hours, minimum 20 minutes.
• Cut capsicum and onion into 3.25cm / 1.3" wide squares.
• Thread beef (reserve Marinade), vegetables and mushrooms on each skewer. I use 2 pieces of vegetables between each piece of beef. Thread loosely - don't smush together tightly (helps even cooking).
• Brush kebabs lightly with Reserved Marinade (including vegetables), then drizzle with olive oil.
• Heat BBQ or large skillet over high heat. Add 1 tbsp oil, then when smoking, cook kebabs in batches for 2 minutes on each side until slightly charred (4 sides = 8 minutes in total), basting with Reserved Marinade as you go.
• Transfer to plate, cover loosely with foil and rest for 3 minutes before serving. Garnish with parsley if desired. See note for pictured Pink Dipping Sauce.

SWEET-AND-SOUR SHISH KABOBS

Steps:

• In a large resealable bag, combine 1/4 cup of the apricot preserves, the tamari, chili paste and sesame oil. Add the diced chicken and toss to combine. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium heat. Thread each skewer in the following order: pepper, chicken, pineapple, chicken, pepper, chicken, pineapple. Repeat until all the chicken is used; reserve the marinade in the bag.
• Drizzle the skewers with the olive oil and place them in the hot grill pan. Cook, rotating often, until the chicken is cooked through and edges of the pineapple are golden brown, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the reserved marinade and the remaining 2 tablespoons apricot preserves in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Baste the skewers with this mixture 2 or 3 times during cooking.

GRILLED SWEET AND SOUR MEATBALL KABOBS

Steps:

• Heat grill. In large bowl, combine bell pepper, onion and mushrooms. Sprinkle with seasoned salt; toss to coat.
• Alternately thread meatballs, bell pepper, onion and mushrooms onto four 12 to 14-inch metal skewers.
• When ready to grill, place kabobs on gas grill over medium heat on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals. Cook 10 to 15 minutes or until meatballs are thoroughly heated and vegetables are crisp-tender, brushing generously with half of the sweet-and-sour sauce and turning frequently. Serve kabobs with remaining half of sauce for dipping.

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.

COCA COLA STEAK KABOBS

Steps:

• Cut steaks into 1 inch thick long strips. Place steaks in bowl or in baking dish. Sprinkle the creole seasoning and the garlic over meat. Pour coca cola over seasoned meat and lightly toss meat in the coca cola mixture.
• Marinate for 30 minutes to an hour.
• Soak your kabob sticks in warm water for at least 15 minutes before skewering your meat on the sticks.
• Place Kabobs onto the BBQ and cook about 4 minutes on each side. If you must have them well done you'll want to give them a few more minutes.
• As a single dinner dish you'll want to serve these with a simple plain white rice or a seasoned rice. I prefer to skewer and grill my favorite fresh veggies to accompany this.
