Cubes of sirloin marinate in a sweet soy teriyaki blend before skewering with fresh pineapple, bell pepper, and red onion. Grilling caramelizes the glaze and softens the fruit, making these ideal for backyard cookouts or quick weeknight dinners served over rice.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 3/4 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 sesame seeds, for garnish
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced, for garnish

Method

  1. In a large bowl or zip-top bag, combine the teriyaki sauce, vegetable oil, garlic, and ginger. Add the beef cubes and toss to coat evenly.

  2. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours.

  3. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20 minutes to prevent burning.

  4. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

  5. Thread the marinated beef, pineapple chunks, bell pepper, and red onion onto the skewers, alternating pieces.

  6. Grill the skewers, turning every 2 to 3 minutes, until the beef is browned and cooked to desired doneness and the vegetables are lightly charred, about 10 to 12 minutes total.

  7. Remove skewers from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes.

  8. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.
