My father worked for an airline in the 1960's, when I was a teenager, and my family lived on the island of Guam in the South Pacific. A friend of Mother's there gave her this wonderful recipe. We ate this delicious warm-weather dish often, and now I prepare it for my family. —Suzanne Pelegrin, Ocala, Florida

A dead simple marinade with great results. The ketchup in the marinade makes it thicker than most, so it clings to the meat well. I used beef tenderloin, and marinated it overnight. Next time I will try it on chicken. Makes a lot of marinade, plenty to do double the amount of beef in the recipe, plus all the vegetables.

These are the BOMB! We make them with beef tenderloin. Wow! Been making them for years. Everyone wants the recipe.

I have been using this recipe since the mid 1990's. I recently misplaced my paper copy and started to panic. Fortunately I found it again here in the on-line recipes. Relief! This recipe is very simple to make and I get terrific result every time. I made these kabobs again last night for company and once again the reviews were great and there were no leftovers! Wonderful recipe.

This is one of my favorite ever recipes from Taste of Home. I usually make it with chicken breasts and grill 6 minutes per side. I've made it dozens of times and it's always very well received, I discard the sauce instead of reheating. It's great to have a wonderful easy recipe with items I ALWAYS have on hand!
