Steak Skewers With Marinade Recipes

STEAK KABOBS

Steps:

• Cut steak, peppers and onion into equal sized pieces (about 1-1.5")
• In a large freezer bag, combine the oil, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, honey, onion powder and chipotle powder if using.
• Add steak and let marinate for at least one hour, and up to 8 hours (see notes above regarding marinade times)
• If using wooden skewers, soak for 10 minutes before skewering your beef and vegetables.
• Preheat the grill to medium-high.
• Skewer your beef cubes and vegetables, alternating as you like. I try to ensure 3-5 cubes of beef per skewer, depending on how long your skewers are.
• Place kabobs directly over the heat, cooking for 4-5 minutes before flipping and cooking another 4-5 minutes. See notes above for cook times depending on your preference for doneness.

GRILLED STEAK SKEWERS WITH HORSERADISH

Steps:

• For the steak skewers: Assemble the marinade by combining the soy sauce, vegetable oil, horseradish, rice wine vinegar, ginger and honey in a bowl. Put the sirloin in a large ziptop bag and pour the marinade over the meat. Gently massage the meat and place in the refrigerator for a minimum of 1 hour.
• In the meantime, prepare for the skewer assembly. Put the wooden skewers in a shallow bowl of water and soak for 1 hour. This will prevent burning on the grill. Discard the water after soaking.
• Prep the scallions by slicing the white and light green parts into 1-inch pieces. Set aside for the skewers. Then, slice the dark green tops and set aside for the sauce.
• For the horseradish sauce. In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, horseradish, hot sauce and Worcestershire. Stir in the salt, ginger and reserved scallion tops. This can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. When ready to serve, pour the horseradish sauce in a small bowl and garnish with a few more pieces of scallions on top.
• Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Slide 4 to 5 cubes of beef onto each skewer, alternating with pieces of scallion (discard the marinade). Grill until browned and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Serve warm alongside the horseradish sauce for dipping.

ASIAN STEAK SKEWERS

Steps:

• Whisk soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, green onions, lemon juice, sesame seeds, ginger, and garlic together in a bowl until marinade is smooth.
• Thinly slice steak with the grain into 1/4-inch thick pieces. Thread steak slices onto skewers and place in a flat plastic or glass container. Pour marinade over skewers. Cover container with plastic wrap, and refrigerate, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Flip skewers and continue marinating in the refrigerator, 1 1/2 to 2 hours more.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Remove skewers from marinade, discarding marinade.
• Cook steak skewers on the preheated grill until cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

STEAK AND VEGGIE SKEWERS WITH CREAMY DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Soak 12 wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
• Thread the beef, Brussels sprouts, mushroom and onions onto 12 skewers, alternating between meat and vegetables. Place in a large baking dish.
• Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
• Stir the olive oil, smoked paprika, oregano, garlic salt, coriander, lemon pepper and crushed red pepper in a large measuring cup. Reserve 1/4 cup of the mixture and pour the rest over the skewers.
• Add the reserved marinade to a bowl with the sour cream, mayonnaise and lemon juice. Mix well until combined, then fold in the parsley and mint. Set aside until ready to use.
• Carefully add the skewers to the grill and brush with the marinade. Cover and cook on one side for 3 to 4 minutes, then brush again with the remaining marinade and flip. Cook until the meat and vegetables are cooked to desired doneness, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove to a platter and rest for 5 minutes. Serve with the creamy sauce.
