Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups whole fresh mushrooms
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 large sweet onion peeled and cut into wedges
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless chicken breast halves cut into cubes
  • 1/2 pinch ground ginger
  • 2 red bell peppers cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 pound beef sirloin cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce

Equipment

  • Skewers
  • Grill
  • Large resealable plastic bag

Method
 

  1. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine teriyaki sauce, honey, garlic powder, and ground ginger. Mix well to create the marinade.
  2. Add bell peppers, sweet onion wedges, mushrooms, beef sirloin cubes, and chicken breast cubes to the bag with the marinade.
  3. Seal the bag tightly, then gently massage to ensure all ingredients are well-coated with the marinade.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow flavors to fully penetrate the meat and vegetables.
  5. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
  6. Preheat grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grate to prevent sticking.
  7. Thread the marinated meat and vegetables onto skewers, leaving small spaces between pieces to ensure even cooking. Discard the used marinade.
  8. Grill kabobs for approximately 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until meat is thoroughly cooked (chicken shows no pink inside, beef reaches desired doneness) and vegetables have softened while maintaining some crunch.

Notes

For best results, cut all ingredients into similarly sized pieces to ensure even cooking. These kabobs are highly customizable - feel free to use just one protein if preferred, or substitute with shrimp, tofu, lamb, or pork. The vegetable options are equally flexible; try adding zucchini, cherry tomatoes, or pineapple chunks.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. These kabobs pair wonderfully with coconut rice, warm pita bread, or a crisp Mediterranean salad.
