[video=youtube;fzsje_tPtIg]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzsje_tPtIg[/video]
MEAT -- enough for four. Choose Steak, Chicken or Shrimp. Dont mix (Recipe will be for steak)
1-2 large Granny Smith Apples
1 large red onion
1-2 limes
2-4 cloves of garlic
salt
crushed black pepper
ancho chili powder
Orange Juice
Cayenne
Chili Powder
Onion Powder
Prep:
Cut meat into large skewarable pieces. Place into a large bowl. Mince garlic cloves finely and place in bowl with meat. squeeze lime juice over meat. Toss meat in lime and garlic. Cover with Salt, Crushed Pepper, Ancho Chili Powder, Onion Powder, Cayenne to taste. Go ligher on the Cayenne then the rest. Pour a small bit of OJ in the bowl (around 2-tbsp). Toss until meat is entirely coated. Cover bowl and place in fridge for 3-4 hours.
Immediately before cooking Prep:
Skin apples and cut into cubes. Place in bowl and cover lightly with Salt and ground pepper. Sprinkle Chili powder to taste over Apples. Sprinkly lightly with lime juice and toss.
Go time:
Cut Large red onion into halves then quarter. Flake off into large skins. Skewer Meat, Onion and apple. I prefer this order O,MM,A,O,MM,A,O.
Cook to Medium Rare temp and Enjoy. I attempted to use my Emberlit this time to cook them for fun but i couldnt get a fire going. Since i just moved i dont have a grill yet, i shamefully had to cook on the stove top. Still turned out good.
