Asian Flank Steak Skewers

I love love this recipe.  I found it on the blog for Skinnytaste.  Everyone loved this!

This will be great for tailgate because anything on a stick is easy and doesn't use plates or utensils.

The original recipe is located here.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 lbs flank steak (sliced it to about 1/4 inch)
  • 1 1/2 cups reduced sodium soy sauce (make sure it reduced sodium or you will have a salty mess on your hands...believe me I did that the first time and it was gross)
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger (I used the powdered from the pantry)
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 lime juice

Directions:

If you are using metal skewers ignore this step.  If you are using wooden skewers then make sure you soak in water for 30 mins.  If not you're going to have a hot mess on your hands and the skewers will catch fire part way through the cooking.  And they you'll char your hands trying to get them off the grill.  Can you tell I've forgotten this step and done that several times before??? :-)



Cut the steak in the strips.  Mix all the other ingredients together and put the steak and the ingredients in the ziploc bag.  Squish it all around until its coated. 



Let marinade for 30 mins or more.

Take out of bag and thread onto the skewers.



Cook on grill in direct heat on a low setting for about 10 mins give or take until they are cooked to your liking.
