SESAME BEEF AND SCALLION KEBABS



Sesame Beef and Scallion Kebabs image

Categories     Beef     Ginger     Marinate     Quick & Easy     Backyard BBQ     Fall     Grill     Grill/Barbecue     Soy Sauce     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup soy sauce
2 garlic cloves, forced through a garlic press
1 tablespoon Asian (toasted) sesame oil
1 teaspoon minced fresh gingerroot
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons wine vinegar
2 teaspoons sesame seeds
1 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 pound boneless shell steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
five 7-inch bamboo skewers
8 scallions, trimmed

Steps:

  • In a small bowl whisk together the soy sauce, the garlic, the oil, the gingerroot, the sugar, the vinegar, the sesame seeds, and the pepper. Thread the steak cubes loosely onto 4 of the skewers and thread the remaining skewer crosswise through the middle of each scallion so that the scallions stand parallel to one another. Put the beef and scallion kebabs in a shallow dish just large enough to hold them, pour the marinade over them, coating them well, and let the kebabs marinate, chilled, turning them frequently, for 25 minutes. Grill the kebabs on an oiled rack set about 6 inches over glowing coals, turning them, for 10 minutes. Alternatively the kebabs may be broiled under a preheated broiler about 4 inches from the heat in the same manner.) Divide the beef and the scallions, both removed from the skewer, between 2 plates.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Flank steak or skirt steak are great choices for this salad, as they are both flavorful and tender when cooked properly.
  • Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger will help to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor.
  • Cook the beef properly: Be sure to cook the beef over high heat so that it gets a nice sear on the outside while remaining tender on the inside.
  • Slice the beef thinly: Slicing the beef thinly against the grain will help to make it more tender and easier to eat.
  • Use fresh herbs: Cilantro and scallions are essential ingredients in this salad, and they should be used fresh for the best flavor.
  • Toast the sesame seeds: Toasting the sesame seeds will help to bring out their nutty flavor.
  • Use a light dressing: A simple dressing made with rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and lime juice will help to brighten up the salad without overpowering the other flavors.

Conclusion:

This Asian beef salad is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The combination of tender beef, fresh herbs, and flavorful dressing is sure to please everyone at your table. Serve it as a main course or as a side dish, and enjoy!
