When the weather is nice, you can usually find me outside grilling something. Skewers are a great to make when you want to use up fruits, vegetables and meats. You can pretty much throw anything together on a stick and grill it making a delicious easy dinner. Well not really but kind of! 

Variations of Skewers

There are lots of variations of skewers you can make. First you want to start by choosing the meat or fish such as chicken, steak or shrimp as the main ingredient. Then, you want to choose what you want to go in between the meat or fish on the skewer. Some other ideas would be pineapple, bacon, lemon, lime, mushrooms and more. And the final step before grilling is choosing a marinade or seasoning for the skewers. 

Side Dishes to Serve Grilled Teriyaki Steak Skewers

The possibilities are endless on what you can serve with beef skewers and will depend on what everyone likes. Some of the best side dishes that pair nicely with kabobs are corn on the cob, salad, rice, noodles or potato salad.
