MARGARITA BEEF SKEWERS

Margarita Beef Skewers image

These skewers are quick and easy to make and taste terrific. With tender top sirloin, you don't need to marinate a long time to tenderize the meat, just long enough to impart the flavors of the citrus and garlic marinade. Serve over rice.

1 onion, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 large red or green bell pepper, cut into 1 inch pieces
