Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients, mixing well. Set aside at room temperature to marinate for 15 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Preheat the broiler or a grill. Slide the beef cubes onto the skewers, using 4 to 5 cubes per skewer. Press the beef into the marinade to get as much of the coconut as possible to cling to the meat. Grill, turning once, until browned and cooked to the desired doneness, 3 to 6 minutes per side. Serve immediately.
