Vietnamese-inspired Lemongrass Beef Skewers

Vietnamese-inspired Lemongrass Beef Skewers are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that will transport your taste buds to Southeast Asia. This dish is perfect for a summer barbecue or a quick weeknight dinner. The key to this recipe is the lemongrass, which gives the beef a fragrant and citrusy flavor.

To make these skewers, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 4 oz. beef sirloin, cut into thin strips
- 1 stalk lemongrass, finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tbsp. soy sauce
- 1 tbsp. fish sauce
- 1 tbsp. brown sugar
- 1 tbsp. vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Bamboo skewers, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes

To prepare the marinade, mix together the lemongrass, garlic, soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, vegetable oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add the beef strips to the marinade and toss to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
When you're ready to cook the skewers, preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Thread the beef strips onto the soaked bamboo skewers, making sure to leave a little space between each piece. Grill the skewers for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the beef is cooked to your liking.
The Vietnamese-inspired Lemongrass Beef Skewers are a perfect combination of sweet, salty, and tangy flavors. The lemongrass adds a refreshing citrusy taste to the beef, while the soy sauce and fish sauce give it a savory umami flavor. The brown sugar caramelizes on the grill, creating a deliciously crispy crust on the outside of the beef.
This dish is perfect for a summer barbecue or a quick weeknight dinner. It's easy to make and can be served with a side of rice or a fresh salad. The Vietnamese-inspired Lemongrass Beef Skewers are a must-try for anyone who loves Asian cuisine.
