Ingredients
beef (top or bottom sirloin)
1 1/4 - 1 1/2 lbs (cut into 1-inch cubes)
bottled teriyaki sauce
1/2 cup (none)
oriental sesame oil
1 teaspoon (optional)
garlic clove
1 (minced)
green onions
8 - 12 (trimmed)
plum tomatoes
2 (cut into slices (optional))
Instructions
1
Cut beef into 1-inch cubes, if not pre-cut, and place in a bowl.
2
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, sesame oil (if using), and minced garlic. Pour half of this marinade over the beef, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Allow the beef to marinate for 15 to 30 minutes at room temperature.
3
While the beef marinates, prepare your vegetables. Trim the green onions and slice the plum tomatoes into wedges. These will be skewered alongside the beef.
4
If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
5
Thread marinated beef cubes and the prepared vegetables onto the skewers, alternating between beef and vegetables for a colorful presentation.
6
Preheat the grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking.
7
Place the skewers on the grill and cover. Grill the kabobs for about 6 to 9 minutes, turning them occasionally and brushing with any remaining marinade for added flavor. Keep an eye on them to reach your desired level of doneness (medium is recommended).
8
During the last 3 to 4 minutes of grilling, add the green onions and plum tomatoes directly onto the grill. Cook until they are tender and slightly charred.
9
Once cooked, remove the kabobs, onions, and tomatoes from the grill. Drizzle any leftover glaze over them for a finishing touch. Serve warm and enjoy!
