A flavorful and easy-to-make recipe for grilled beef skewers with an Asian-inspired marinade.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
Soaking wooden skewers ensures they don't catch fire on the grill.
In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, and freshly ground pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
Use fresh ingredients for the marinade to enhance the flavors.
Cut the beef tenderloin into thin strips. Add the beef strips to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
For deeper flavor, marinate the beef for up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Thread the marinated beef strips onto the skewers, piercing the meat in several places to secure it.
Ensure the beef is evenly distributed on the skewers for even cooking.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the beef is cooked to your desired doneness.
Avoid overcooking the beef to keep it tender and juicy.
Serve the skewers hot with your choice of dipping sauces, such as soy sauce or a spicy mustard.
Garnish with chopped scallions for a fresh touch.
