Mongolian Meat Sticks

Submitted by DailyInspiration

"An easy to serve appetizer. Although the recipe recommends broiling these in the oven, an indoor electric grill would work just as well. Prep time does not include marinating time."

 

• Ready In: 30mins
• Ingredients: 10
• Yields: 32 skewers

ingredients

• 2 1⁄2 lbs flank steaks
• 1⁄2 cup hoisin sauce
• 2 tablespoons peanut oil
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons dry sherry
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1⁄2 teaspoon sugar
• 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper
• 1⁄2 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
• 1 garlic clove, crushed

directions

1. Slice steak diagonally across grain into 1/8 inch thick strips. Place in a large heavy-duty. zip lock plastic bag. Set aside.
2. Combine hoisin sauce and remaining 8 ingredients; stir well. Pour marinade over steak; seal bag securely. Marinate in refrigerator 8 hours, turning occasionally. Meanwhile, soak wooden skewers in water for at least 10 minutes to prevent them from burning.
3. Thread steak onto 32 (6-inch) wooden skewers, discarding marinade. Broil 3 inches from heat (with electric oven door partially opened) 2-3 minutes on each side or to desired degree of doneness. You can dress these skewers up by adding toasted sesame seeds and presenting them with roasted chopped scallions. If preferred, serve with a sauce of your choice.

I cut the recipe way down...these sure were tender and packed full of flavor... I used metal skewers instead of the wood...I forgot to use the sesame seeds and scallions...but next time I will remember to use them...made for "1st Time" tag game...
