Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb sirloin steak
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 2 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 0.5 tsp red pepper flakes
- 2 tbsp sesame seeds
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 8 wooden skewers
Instructions
Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
Trim any excess fat from the sirloin steak and slice it into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick and 3-4 inches long.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes to create the marinade. Whisk until well combined.
Add the sliced sirloin steak to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the steak from the marinade and thread the strips onto the soaked skewers, weaving them in a zigzag pattern. Discard any leftover marinade.
Grill the skewers for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the beef is cooked to your desired doneness.
Sprinkle the grilled skewers with sesame seeds and garnish with thinly sliced green onions before serving.
Serve hot with your choice of side dishes, such as steamed rice, grilled vegetables, or a crisp salad.
