This is a favorite summer meal at our house.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Summer grilling season will be tastier with these teriyaki beef and shrimp kabobs. It's a summer twist on surf and turf with an Asian feel. The marinade is slightly sweet and savory with just the right amount of flavor to make it like a traditional teriyaki. What we liked about the sauce was that it was not as sweet as the store-bought jar. Steak and shrimp are a classic combination with the peppers, onions, and cherry tomatoes. We served these grilled kabobs with fried rice for a simple, light meal.
