Recipe Ingredients:

Marinade:
1/2 cup country Dijon-style mustard
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
4 teaspoons bottled minced garlic or fresh crushed garlic
1 tablespoon ground red pepper

1 1/2 pounds boneless beef top sirloin steak, cut 1 1/2-inch thick
5 to 6 green onions, white part only, cut into 1-inch pieces

Cooking Directions:

1. For Marinade: In large shallow bowl, combine marinade ingredients; whisk until blended. Remove and reserve 1/2 cup for basting.
2. Trim fat from beef steak; cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes. Add beef to remaining marinade in bowl; toss to coat. Cover and marinate in refrigerator 20 minutes.
3. Remove beef from marinade; discard marinade. Alternately thread an equal amount of beef and green onion pieces onto each of 4 (12-inch) metal skewers.
4. Place skewers on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, uncovered, 10 to 12 minutes for medium rare (145°F | 62.7°C) to medium (160°F | 71.1°C) doneness, basting frequently with reserved 1/2 cup marinade and turning occasionally. Serve immediately.

Makes 4 servings.
