- Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a flavorful marinade for at least 30 minutes will help to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor. Some popular marinade ingredients include soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and brown sugar.
- Skewer the beef: When skewering the beef, be sure to thread the meat onto the skewers in a way that allows the marinade to drip off. This will help to prevent the meat from drying out.
- Cook the beef: The best way to cook beef skewers is over a hot grill or in a grill pan. Cook the skewers for 8-10 minutes per side, or until the beef is cooked to your desired doneness. Be sure to brush the skewers with the marinade or a glaze during cooking.
- Serve the beef skewers: Beef skewers can be served immediately with a variety of dipping sauces, such as teriyaki sauce, hoisin sauce, or peanut sauce. They can also be served over rice or noodles.
