Share:
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup soy sauce
- ¾ cup water plus 2 tbsp water, divided
- 6 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon mirin rice wine
- ½ teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon minced ginger
- 1 ½ teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 pounds top sirloin steak cut into 1 ½ inch cubes
- 2 cups pineapple wedges cut into 1 ½ inch cubes
- 1 cup diced red onion cut into 1 ½ inch cubes
- ½ teaspoon sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon sliced green onion
- 2 tablespoons cilantro leaves
Instructions
- In a medium-sized bowl whisk together the soy sauce, ¾ cup water, honey, rice vinegar, mirin rice wine, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic.
- Add ½ cup of the teriyaki sauce mixture to a resealable plastic bag along with the cubed beef. Seal the bag and marinate the beef for at least 30 minutes or overnight in a refrigerator. Reserve the remaining 1 cup marinade for later and set aside.
- If using wooden skewers, soak in water for 30 minutes before cooking.
- Add the remaining teriyaki sauce mixture to a small saucepan, should be about 1 cup. Bring the teriyaki sauce to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for 1 minute.
- In a small bowl mix together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water to make a cornstarch slurry. Add the cornstarch slurry to the boiling sauce, and whisk to combine.
- Continuously stir until a nice and thick sauce coats the back of a spoon, 30 to 60 seconds. Set the sauce aside.
- Thread the marinated beef, pineapple wedges and red onion onto each skewer.
- Heat the grill to medium-high. Add a small amount of vegetable oil on a folded piece of paper towel, and then carefully grease the grill with the oil. Once the grill is very hot, add the teriyaki beef skewers and discard the marinade.
- Cook on one side uncovered for 3 minutes. Flip over and cook another 3 minutes. Cook on the remaining sides for 1 minute per side, or until the internal temperature of the beef reaches 130 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, or 140 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
- Allow meat to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- Glaze skewers with teriyaki sauce and garnish with sesame seeds, green onions, and cilantro leaves. Serve extra teriyaki sauce on the side.
