I first had this as part of a set menu at an izakaya (Japanese pub) and loved it, so I adapted it to make it easy to prepare at home.

Steps

1

Add all the marinade ingredients to a plastic bag.
2

Add the beef to the bag and gently massage to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes (since the beef is thin), or overnight for a stronger flavor.
3

Roll the beef into bite-sized pieces and thread 3 pieces onto each skewer. For lunchboxes, use toothpicks instead of skewers.
4

Grill the skewers in a fish grill or broiler. Grill on low for 7-8 minutes, or use the automatic setting for marinated foods if available. Watch carefully as they cook.
5

To prevent the skewers from burning, wrap the ends in aluminum foil. After grilling, remove the foil carefully to avoid burns. These skewers are also perfect for entertaining.
