Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1/2 cup Kinder's Bourbon Teriyaki Sauce and Glaze
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- Fresh green onions or sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Preparing the Grill
- Fire up the grill: Preheat your Arteflame grill to get it ready for grilling. Aim for medium-high heat, around 400°F, to sear the steak skewers and lock in the juices.
Preparing the Steak Skewers
- Marinate the steak: In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, soy sauce, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Add the steak cubes and toss to coat evenly. Let the steak marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Assemble the skewers: Thread the steak cubes, bell peppers, and red onion onto skewers, alternating between the meat and vegetables.
Grilling the Steak Skewers
- Grill the skewers: Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until the steak is seared and the vegetables are slightly charred.
- Glaze with Kinder's Bourbon Teriyaki Sauce: During the last 2-3 minutes of grilling, generously brush the skewers with Kinder's Bourbon Teriyaki Sauce and Glaze. Turn them frequently to build up a thick, caramelized glaze.
Finishing Touches
- Rest the skewers: Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
- Serve: Arrange the skewers on a platter and brush with additional Kinder's Bourbon Teriyaki Sauce and Glaze if desired. Garnish with fresh green onions or sesame seeds.
Tips
- Even cooking: Make sure the steak cubes are cut to a uniform size to ensure even cooking on the grill.
- Sauce layering: Applying multiple layers of Kinder's Bourbon Teriyaki Sauce and Glaze during the final grilling phase creates a rich, flavorful glaze.
- Resting: Letting the skewers rest after grilling helps keep the steak tender and juicy.
