Scale
Marinade:
- 1/3 cup teriyaki sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
Skewers:
- 1 1/2 lbs sirloin steak, cut into 1.5-inch cubes
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped into chunks
- 1 small red onion, quartered
- 1 1/2 cups fresh pineapple chunks
- Sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish
- Skewers (soaked in water if wooden)
Instructions
- Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Add beef cubes and marinate for at least 1 hour (or overnight in the fridge for deeper flavor).
- Grilling: Preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates. Thread marinated beef, pineapple, bell pepper, and onion alternately onto skewers. Grill skewers for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally, until beef is cooked to desired doneness and vegetables are charred slightly. Brush remaining marinade on skewers during the last few minutes of grilling.
- Serving: Remove from grill and sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve hot over rice or with a tropical salad.
