Asian Beef Skewer

Sharing is caring!

I’m a big fan of skewers on the grill. Or kabobs if you prefer to call them that. They are (in my mind) perfect for entertaining. You can put together a head of time and then throw them on the grill once your guest arrive. I’ve found that when I entertain with skewers my guest think its something fancy–I guess skewers could be fancy? I’ve made these Asian Beef Skewers a few times now both for my husband and I and while entertaining. Each time, I’ve found that we have none left. Back in January, we had our good friends over for dinner. We typically go out to eat with them every other week. But this time I suggested everyone come over for dinner and I would cook. I made my Baked Vegetarian Southwestern Egg Rolls with Avocado Buttermilk Sauce to start with. While everyone was eating I prepped all the veggies and meat. Then I put all of our friends to work. We had a “skewer” party. Some made it a race and others were oh-so gentle with every piece of vegetable and meat. I’m one of them that made it a race–I wanted to get on with the “par-tay”. I made these Asian Beef Skewers, a grilled chicken skewer and my shrimp boil kabobs. We had so many skewers on the grill that we had to cook in two batches. Mind you we probably had 40 skewers for like 6 people. I recognize I tend to go a bit over board when making skewers, because I want to ensure that everyone has enough food.

All of our friends (including us) were fighting over the Asian Beef Skewers. I love adding ingredients to skewers that are not the norm, like these snap peas! Who would have ever thought to grill snap peas? They actually grill beautifully and of course take the skewers up a notch. I like to use the Gourmet Garden herb paste. They keep well in the refrigerator and pack a big punch of flavor! I also have found that the skewers are much more appealing to the eye with a few sesame seeds sprinkled on top. So if you want to make kabobs… give my recipe for Asian Beef Skewers a try!
