Mrs. G’s Appliance Chef Recipes – Beef Kebabs

August 6, 2013 By

Mrs Gs Appliance Chef Mary Beth Madill Cooking Beef Kebabs

Mrs. G’s Appliance Chef, Mary Beth Madill, has another recipe to share from the Miele kitchen vignette at Mrs. G’s. The beef kababs with cherry sauce is a great entrée to make on the grill during these lazy days of summer. You’ll love the flavorful sauce combined with the smoky meat! It can also be cooked on a grill pan as she demonstrated. Madill provides more of her recipes on her Appliance Chef blog.

She’s also offers cooking classes for kids (with a parent). So check the site for the next class so you can see her cooking techniques live! Additionally, there’s a free Kosher Cooking Show at Mrs. G’s with Rabbi Goldenberg on Sunday, August 11th from 1:00 – 2:30 PM. RSVP by August 7th.

Beef Kebabs

  • 1½ pound flank steak
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ cup scallions, thinly sliced (optional)
Directions:
Cherry Sauce
The cherry barbecue sauce is a cinch to make and can be prepared ahead of time.

  1. Place olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Add the shallots and a pinch of salt and sauté until translucent (around 5 minutes).
  3. Stir in the garlic, ginger and tomato paste, and sauté for 30 second until fragrant.
  4. Add the tamari, vinegar, juice and cherries, and bring to a boil.
  5. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes or until the cherry mixture has thickened.
  6. While the sauce is simmering, stir occasionally and smash the cherries against the side of the pot.
  7. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer the sauce to a bowl or measuring cup and set aside.
Beef Kebabs
  1. A half hour before you want to grill your skewers, soak 16 bamboo skewers in water.
  2. Remove flank steak from the refrigerator and cut it into 16 pieces.
  3. First, cut the steak in half lengthwise (along the grain).
  4. Next, slice the steak in half across the grain, then in fourths, and finally in eighths.
  5. Carefully thread each slice of meat through the center with a soaked skewer.
  6. Using a meat pounder or small cast iron skillet, pound each steak skewer until it’s about ½ inch thick.
  7. Season the beef with salt and pepper and brush both sides with olive oil.
  8. On the back of your back grill, or cast iron stove top grill pan, cook beef skewers over medium – high heat for 3 – 4 minutes on each side.
  9. Baste skewers with Cherry Barbeque sauce as they are cooking.
  10. Let the meat skewers rest for 5 minutes.
  11. Just before serving, brush with Cherry Barbecue Sauce on more time.
  12. Garnish with fresh scallions and served immediately.
