I love Korean BBQ and wanted to change it up a bit on how I ate it. So why not turn it into Korean BBQ Skewers?! We all know eating food off a stick is SO much better and these skewers did not disappoint.
Technically this recipe could be a 5 ingredients recipe but I like adding the additional bells and whistles because it just elevates the dish.
WHAT YOU’LL NEED FOR THE KOREAN BBQ SKEWERS:
- Ribeye or any cut of steak.
- Kevin’s Natural Foods Korean BBQ Sauce
- Sesame Oil
- Kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper
- Sesame seeds and green onions for garnish (optional)
- Kimchi and nori sheets to serve with (optional)
HELPFUL TIPS AND TRICKS TO GET THE BEST KOREAN BBQ SKEWERS:
- If you’re not using ribeye, get a cut that has some fat in it. I also like to use New York strip steaks.
- Make sure the cubes of steak are similar in size. This will ensure even cooking.
- Marinate the steak for a minimum of 30 minutes but if you have time marinate for even longer.
- Cooking time will vary depending on how you like your steak. I like mine medium to medium rare.
- Serve these skewers with nori sheets and kimchi. Trust me!
