Ingredients

Succotash

  • 1 can (11 oz) whole kernel corn with red and green peppers, drained
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen shelled edamame (soybeans), thawed
  • 1 cup small cherry tomatoes, cut in half
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped canned chipotle chiles in adobo sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Lime-Chile Marinade

  • 1 teaspoon grated lime peel
  • 1/3 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped canned chipotle chiles in adobo sauce
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped

Kabobs

  • 1 1/2 lb boneless beef sirloin steak, 3/4 to 1 inch thick, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 medium red onion, cut into 24 wedges and separated

Steps

  • 1
    In 10-inch skillet, heat all succotash ingredients over medium heat 4 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until edamame are crisp-tender; refrigerate.
  • 2
    In shallow glass or plastic dish or resealable food-storage plastic bag, mix all marinade ingredients. Add beef; stir to coat with marinade. Cover dish or seal bag; refrigerate at least 2 hours but no longer than 24 hours, stirring once, to marinate.
  • 3
    Heat gas or charcoal grill. Drain beef, reserving marinade. On each of twelve 10-inch metal skewers, thread beef and onion alternately, leaving 1/4-inch space between each piece. Brush onion with reserved marinade.
  • 4
    Place kabobs on grill. Cover grill; cook over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes for medium beef doneness, turning and brushing with reserved marinade occasionally. Discard any remaining marinade. Serve kabobs with succotash.

  • Edamame, fresh soybeans available shelled or in their pods, are the latest rage. Not only are they colorful and hearty, they are also a complete protein (containing all the essential amino acids needed in the diet), a rare quality for a plant protein!
