INSTRUCTIONS
- Prepare Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 1 hour to prevent burning. Alternatively, reusable metal skewers are a great option.

- Marinate Shrimp and Steak:
- In one bowl, toss shrimp with avocado oil, lemon juice, and minced garlic.
- In another bowl, toss steak cubes with avocado oil, coconut aminos, and minced garlic.
- Cover both bowls and let them marinate in the fridge for about 1 hour.
- Skewer Ingredients: Thread shrimp onto one set of skewers and steak onto another to ensure even cooking.
- Preheat the Grill: Heat the grill to medium-high.
