Margarita Beef Skewers

By: chellebelle 
"These skewers are quick and easy to make and taste terrific. With tender top sirloin, you don't need to marinate a long time to tenderize the meat, just long enough to impart the flavors of the citrus and garlic marinade. Serve over rice."

Yummy, but I'd add a decent amount of lime juice to make sure it has that lime flavor.
