Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds (680 grams) top round steak, cut thin
- 2 green onions, sliced, to serve
- 4 tablespoons cilantro, to serve
- 1 red chili pepper, thinly sliced, to serve
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, to serve
For the beef marinade:
- 2 tablespoons coconut sugar
- 1/4 cup tamari sauce or soy sauce
- 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
- Salt, to taste
- Freshly ground pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Marinate the Beef: In a large bowl, mix coconut sugar, tamari sauce, rice wine vinegar, olive oil, garlic, ginger, salt, and pepper. Add the steak and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Prepare the Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20 minutes before assembling.
- Grill the Beef Skewers: Preheat a gas grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F/200°C to 450°F/230°C). Thread the marinated beef onto the skewers. Grill the beef skewers for 3 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
- Serve: Serve the skewers immediately, garnished with green onions, cilantro, chili pepper, sesame seeds, and any leftover marinade as a dipping sauce.
Notes
- You can also put the skewers under a broiler with medium-high heat, and broil them for 3 minutes on each side.
