Ingredients
2 pounds sirloin steak tips, trimmed and cut into 2 ½-inch piecesSalt and pepper ½ cup olive oil 6 garlic cloves, minced1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary 1 ½ pounds small red potatoes, unpeeled, halved9 wooden skewers 2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
Instructions
- Pat tips dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Combine oil, garlic, and ½ teaspoon salt in medium bowl. Microwave, uncovered, until garlic is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Stir in rosemary.
- Thread potatoes on skewers. Place in single layer on large plate, brush all over with ¼ cup oil mixture, and season liberally with salt. Microwave until potatoes offer slight resistance when pierced with tip of paring knife, about 8 minutes, flipping halfway through microwaving.
- Grill tips over hotter side of 2-level fire, until well browned all over and temperature registers 125 degrees (for medium-rare), 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer tips to platter, brush with remaining 2 tablespoons oil mixture, tent loosely with aluminum foil, and let rest while potatoes cook.
- Meanwhile, grill potatoes, covered, over hotter side of grill until marked on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Move potatoes to cooler part of grill and continue to cook, covered, until tender, 5 to 8 minutes longer. Transfer to platter with meat, brush with remaining oil mixture, and sprinkle with chives. Serve.

Why This Recipe Works
Starting the potatoes in the microwave cuts down on their grilling time. The potatoes and steak tips are seasoned with the same infused oil.
Instructions
- Pat tips dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Combine oil, garlic, and ½ teaspoon salt in medium bowl. Microwave, uncovered, until garlic is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Stir in rosemary.
