#CookoutWeek ~ Teriyaki Beef Skewers

  

Welcome to Day 2 of #CookoutWeek! See my kick-off post and make sure to enter the fantastic giveaway!  Today I'm sharing Teriyaki Beef Skewers. They are DELICIOUS! And super quick and easy - you cannot beat that. We served these alongside some sesame noodles, baked beans, and coleslaw for a tasty weeknight meal. But none of us could stop raving about the meat!

I doubled the recipe for a 2.3 lb cut of flank steak, and I'm VERY glad I doubled it. We ate these up. These could be used so many different ways. Reserve some sauce before marinating, and serve over rice drizzled with sauce, fried rice, a yummy salad... sooo many options. They're delicious and I hope you give them a try soon! Happy grilling season!

Teriyaki Beef Skewers from High Heels and Grills

Ingredients

1 lb flank steak, cut into thin strips along the grain
¼ cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon Gourmet Garden lightly dried ginger
Skewers as needed

Directions

1. Soak your skewers (if made of wood) on a cookie sheet with a shallow layer of water while everything else is being prepped.
2. In a large Ziploc bag, combine marinade ingredients and steak strips, press meat around to coat evenly. Set in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 30 minutes. 
3. Preheat your grill to high heat (spray with non stick cooking spray before igniting if desired). Skewer the meat (I got about 3 chunks of meat per skewer the way we cut the strips).
4. Cook the meat for about 2 - 3 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired doneness. They cook quickly since they are cut thin.
