- 1 lb shrimp
- 1.5 lb sirloin steak
- 2 cups rice
- 2 bell peppers
- 1 onion
- Garlic butter sauce
- Bagged garden salad, side
- Garlic bread, side
How to Make It
- Thread steak, shrimp, bell pepper, and onion onto skewers.
- Season generously and grill or broil 3–4 minutes per side, until shrimp is pink and steak hits your preferred doneness.
- Cook rice while the skewers grill.
- Brush skewers with garlic butter sauce right off the heat.
- Serve over rice with salad and garlic bread on the side.
No-Time-For-That Tip: Keep steak and shrimp on separate skewers — they cook at different speeds and this way neither one overcooks waiting on the other.
