Ingredients

• 500 grams Beef (tenderloin or sirloin)
• 120 milliliters Gluten-free soy sauce
• 60 milliliters Mirin
• 60 milliliters Sake
• 50 grams Brown sugar
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
• 2 whole Green onions, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Toasted sesame seeds
• 10 pieces Wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning during cooking.

Step 2

Slice the beef into bite-sized pieces, approximately 1 inch in size, ensuring that the pieces are uniform for even cooking.

Step 3

In a bowl, mix together gluten-free soy sauce, mirin, sake, brown sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger until the sugar dissolves to form a marinade.

Step 4

Add the beef pieces to the marinade, making sure they are well-coated, and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

Step 5

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 6

Thread the marinated beef pieces onto the soaked skewers, dividing the meat evenly among them.

Step 7

Place the beef skewers on the preheated grill and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness. Baste with the remaining marinade during grilling for extra flavor.

Step 8

Once cooked, transfer the skewers to a serving plate, sprinkle with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds.

Step 9

Serve the beef yakitori hot with your choice of sides, such as steamed rice or a fresh salad.
