How to make Surf N Turf Skewers
If you’re using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 15 minutes to prevent burning.
While the skewers soak, trim and cut the steak into 8–12 evenly sized cubes.
Slice the zucchini and yellow squash into about eight medium-thick rounds each.
Preheat the grill to medium-high.
Assemble the skewers by threading pieces of beef, shrimp, mushrooms, zucchini, and yellow squash, distributing ingredients evenly across four skewers.
Brush or spray the kabobs with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Place the skewers on the grill and turn them every few minutes to cook evenly. Cook until the meat and shrimp reach your preferred doneness—about 8 minutes total worked well for me.
Meanwhile, make the garlic butter: melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat.
Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
When the kabobs are done, brush them generously with the garlic butter and serve immediately.
