Tips for better kebabs

VanOekel marinated the chicken and cut the top sirloin steak into 1½ inch cubes. Anything smaller is at risk of falling off the skewer. He uses the microwave to start the potatoes so that everything is equally grilled — the same reason he does not put steak and chicken on the same skewer. The kebabs cook at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes. And don't forget to soak the skewers in water for 20 minutes before cooking to prevent them from catching fire.
