How do I Make a Kebab With Garlic Sauce?

Kebabs: A great summer meal.

If there is one activity that epitomizes summer in America, it is a barbeque. The hot weather seems to draw everyone outside, and it seems only natural that dinner should be enjoyed outdoors as well. A kebab is a barbeque choice that is easy to make and healthier than some other grill options. Kebabs vary in their exact definition, but the basic idea is a long stick lined with chunks of meat and assorted vegetables. Try marinating your kebabs in a garlic sauce before cooking them for a taste that will really stand out.

Things You'll Need

• 2 lbs. meat or chicken
• 4 kebab skewers
• 2 bell peppers
• 1 large onion
• 1/2 lb. grape tomatoes
• 2 zucchini
• 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
• 3 cloves minced garlic
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 water
• Large pan
• Cutting board
• Sharp knife
• Small bowl
• Spoon

Instructions

1. Rinse the meat or chicken and cut it into small, bite-sized pieces.

2. Cut the vegetables into small pieces, discarding any peels or seeds.

3. Thread the meat/chicken and vegetables onto skewers, alternating between all of the different choices. Leave a little space at the bottom of each stick. Lay kebabs in a straight line on the pan.

4. Mix the teriyaki sauce, garlic, brown sugar, pepper and water together in the bowl and stir well.

5. Pour marinade mixture over kebabs. If the marinade seems very thick or there is not enough to cover all of the kebabs, add more water.

6. Put kebabs in the fridge for at least two hours to marinate.

7. Cook kebabs on the grill or in the oven on the highest setting.

Tips & Warnings

• If you want your kebabs to have a more intense garlic taste, you can add more cloves of garlic to the marinade and sprinkle some garlic powder in as well.
