Ingredients
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce or tamari for gluten-free, coconut aminos for soy-free
- 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic grated
- 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- Black pepper
- 16 ounces trimmed NY strip steak cut into 16 cubes
- 1 large head broccoli
- 6-8 medium scallions cut into 1-inch pieces
Instructions
- Whisk together soy sauce, vinegar, honey, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.
- Divide marinade between two bowls. Add beef cubes to one bowl and mix well, marinating for 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 8 hours in the fridge.
- Separate broccoli into 16 similar-sized florets. Trim stems and halve large florets if necessary.
- If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning.
- Thread skewers with alternating pieces of scallion, broccoli, and beef. Repeat until you have 8 skewers.
- Generously brush skewers with reserved marinade and lightly season with additional salt and pepper.
- To grill: Preheat grill to high and cook skewers for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Brush with extra marinade as needed.
- To broil: Set broiler to high and place skewers on a foil-lined baking sheet. Broil for 4 minutes per side, brushing with marinade for added flavor.
- Serve immediately.
