Ingredients

  • 1 lb. top sirloin steak, cut 3/4-inch thick
  • 1 medium red onion, cut into 12 pieces
  • 1/2 cup fig preserves, chopped
  • 2 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 tsp. minced garlic
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper

Instructions

Soak four 10-inch bamboo skewers in water 10 minutes; drain. Cut beef into sixteen 1 1/4-inch pieces.

Alternately thread beef and onion sections evenly onto skewers. Set aside.

Combine preserves, vinegar, oil, garic, 1/2 tsp. salt and pepper in small bowl; reserve 1/4 cup for dipping. Brush kabobs with some of remaining sauce.

Place kabobs on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, uncovered, about 7 to 9 minutes for medium rare to medium doneness, turning and basting with sauce every 2 minutes.

Season kabobs with additional salt, as desired. Serve with reserved sauce for dipping.
