Steps:
- Preheat a charcoal or gas grill to medium high. Swirl the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until melted. Add the garlic and soften about 2 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce.
- Put the mushrooms in a medium bowl, add the soy-garlic butter and toss until well coated. Thread the mushrooms on the skewers, putting 7 to 8 on each and leaving 3-inch handles at the ends.
- Put the skewers on the grill with the handles resting on or just off the edge of the grill (for easier handling, since they will get very hot) and cover. Cook, turning the skewers every 2 minutes or so and brushing with the butter after every turn, until the mushrooms are slightly charred all over and softened, 8 to 9 minutes. Sprinkle with the thyme and parsley or lemon zest if using and season with salt. Alternatively, melt a little extra butter and add the thyme, parsley and/or lemon zest if using and drizzle over the mushrooms.
- The sixth ingredient: Chopped fresh parsley or grated lemon zest, sprinkled over with the thyme; or you could melt a little extra butter at the end, add the thyme, parsley and or lemon zest and drizzle over.

Steps:
- Make marinade:
- Mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt using a large heavy knife. Transfer to a small bowl and whisk in lemon juice and pepper, then add oil in a stream, whisking until emulsified. Divide marinade among 4 (1- to 2-quart) bowls.
- Prepare skewers:
- Cut steak into 20 to 25 (1/4-inch-thick) slices (about 4 inches long and 1 inch wide), then toss with marinade in one of bowls and thread each slice lengthwise onto a skewer.
- Cut chicken breast halves diagonally into 20 to 25 (1/4-inch-thick) slices (about 4 inches long and 1 inch wide; if breasts are thin, hold knife at a 45-degree angle to get 1-inch-wide slices). Toss with marinade in another bowl and thread each slice lengthwise onto a skewer.
- Toss shrimp with marinade in another bowl, then thread 2 shrimp onto each of 20 to 25 skewers.
- Toss mushrooms with marinade in remaining bowl and thread 2 small mushrooms or 2 large halves onto each of 20 to 25 skewers.
- Prepare grill for cooking over hot charcoal (high heat for gas); see "Grilling Procedure," below.
- Grill skewers in batches on lightly oiled grill rack, covered only if using a gas grill, turning over once with tongs, until beef is medium-rare, about 3 minutes total; chicken is just cooked through, about 3 minutes; shrimp is just cooked through, about 2 minutes; and mushrooms are tender, about 4 minutes.
- Grilling Procedure
- If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. When charcoal turns grayish white (about 15 minutes from lighting), hold your hand 5 inches above grill rack to determine heat for charcoal as follows:
- Hot: When you can hold your hand there for 1 to 2 seconds
- Medium-hot: 3 to 4 seconds
- Low: 5 to 6 seconds
- If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then, if necessary, reduce to heat specified in recipe.

AWESOME MARINADE FOR SHRIMP CHICKEN OR BEEF
In our opinion this is best on shrimp, second for chicken. A friend of mine got this from a cancer awareness book and it's become a big time hit in our family. Some people save part of it and use it over rice as well. It's VERY good.

Tips:
- Choose the right skewers: Use metal skewers for best results, as they are more durable and less likely to burn. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning.
- Cut the ingredients evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly on the skewers.
- Marinate the ingredients: Marinating the ingredients in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize them and add flavor.
- Preheat the grill: Preheat the grill to a medium-high heat before cooking the skewers.
- Cook the skewers over direct heat: This will help to sear the outside of the ingredients and cook them evenly.
- Turn the skewers regularly: This will help to prevent the ingredients from burning.
- Cook the skewers until they are cooked through: The internal temperature of the skewers should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit for chicken and 145 degrees Fahrenheit for beef and shrimp.
- Let the skewers rest before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the ingredients.
Conclusion:
Grilled beef, chicken, shrimp, and mushroom skewers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for summer cookouts. By following these tips, you can ensure that your skewers are cooked perfectly and that your guests will enjoy them.
