These mini steak skewers with Asian grapefruit sauce were created for Metro mon Épicier for the Super Bowl. I was challenged to make a finger food type recipe using grapefruit. I am VERY satisfied with the result! To cook on the barbecue or on a cast-iron pan!

Ingredients

1 kg plain flank steak, cut into short strips against the grain
The juice of 2 fresh grapefruits
3 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 green onion, thinly sliced + a little for serving
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
Salt and pepper from the mill

Preparation

In a large airtight dish, put the flank steak and set aside.
In a large bowl, put the rest of the ingredients, season with salt and pepper and mix.
Pour half the marinade over the meat and mix well. Close the dish and set aside in the fridge for 1 hour. Mix from time to time. Reserve the rest of the marinade in the fridge.
Zigzag the meat on short skewers and set aside. Preheat the BBQ to maximum power and reduce to medium power. Oil the grates.
Place the skewers on the heat and cook, 3 to 4 minutes per side or until desired doneness. Brush generously with the fresh marinade. You can also cook the skewers on a large cast-iron skillet. Garnish with green onions before eating.

Johannes Zillinger Reflexion Sauvignon Blanc 2021

Autriche

Product by biowingut Johannes Zillinger Gmbh, this Austrian white Sauvignon will in my opinion be very suitable for this dish. Eh yes! I agree with white meat! Here, the Asian sauce with a grapefruit sets the tone of the dish, and a red wine would have masked the subtlety of the sauce and style in my opinion. This sauvignon with notes of grapefruit, lime, mint and small white flowers, has a very pleasant patina in the mouth and will be able to support the bib. See the product

Palampam Plemousse, 4.2%

La Barberie

Gose in grapefruit, this tangy and saline beer will offer you frank citrus flavors. The dominant aromas of the beer grapefruit will come into harmony with the grapefruit of the recipe. The coriander seeds of this gose will like it with the Asian sauce. The acidity and the low alcohol level of this beer will make it an ideal refreshment to accompany these skewers. See the product
