WebMD Recipe

These Asian-spiced skewers are great as an entrée, as the featured ingredient in a main dish salad, or as an appetizer. You can also prepare this dish using an indoor grill or oven broiler.

Ingredients

3 tablespoons
bottled hoisin sauce (available in Asian food section of most supermarkets)
3 tablespoons
sherry
1/4 cup
light soy sauce
2 teaspoons
barbecue sauce
3
green onions, chopped
2 teaspoons
minced or chopped garlic
1 tablespoon
minced ginger (bottled or fresh)
1 1/2 pounds
lean steak (flank steak, London broil, top sirloin, etc.), trimmed of visible fat
assorted vegetables, such as 10 cherry tomatoes, 1 bell pepper cut into chunks, and 10 small mushrooms*

Instructions

Add hoisin sauce, sherry, soy sauce, barbecue sauce, green onions, garlic, and ginger to a small bowl and whisk together well.
Cut steak across the grain, on a diagonal, into 1/4-inch slices. Cut the slices into 2-inch long pieces. Place beef pieces in a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag.
Pour marinade mixture over the beef and mix to coat the meat well. Seal bag and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
Preheat outdoor grill for high heat. Thread the steak pieces on metal skewers, alternating with vegetables.
Lightly oil the grill, or coat it with canola cooking spray. Grill skewers until meat achieves desired doneness (3-4 minutes per side).
