Korean Kebabs Recipes

KOREAN KEBABS

Steps:

• Mix oil, soy sauce, and peanut butter together in a bowl until blended and creamy. Stir in spring onion, sesame seeds, garlic, red chile powder, salt, and pepper. Add pork to marinade; turn to coat.
• Marinate pork in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Thread pork, onion, mushrooms, red bell pepper, and zucchini onto skewers. Transfer to the baking sheet. Pour marinade on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until pork is tender and browned, about 30 minutes.

KOREAN BEEF KABOBS (ASIAN)

Steps:

• Cut tenderloin or sirloin beef up into big chunks (2" x 2" cubes). Score 1/4' deep all sides with a sharp knife (several slices per side). Using a two prong fork, pierce the meet repeatedly on all sides (3 or 4 times per side). This will allow the juices to work their way deep into the meat.
• Chop the scallions (just the white part) and mince the garlic.
• Add all the ingrediences together and pour over the meat in a non-reactive container. I use a large zip lock bag.
• Marinate the meet for at least 12 hrs (24 is best).
• Place the meat on skewers with your choice of veggies in between. I like onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms.
• Grill over hot coals turning occasionally and brushing often with remaining marinade. Cook to desired doneness.

KOREAN BBQ BEEF SKEWERS

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan over high heat for 2 minutes and place the beef slices onto the surface for 1 minute per side. Remove immediately and set aside
• Whisk the hoisin, ketchup, barbecue sauce, nam pla, soy sauce, ginger, vegetable oil, scallions and cilantro together in a large bowl. Add the grilled beef and refrigerate at least 1 hour to let the flavors blend.
• Remove from the refrigerator and thread one piece of beef onto a 6" bamboo skewer. Repeat with the remaining beef, set onto a decorative platter and garnish with chopped cilantro.

KOREAN SHORT RIB KEBABS

Steps:

• Combine soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, juice, ginger, sesame seeds, garlic, and scallions in a shallow dish. Add ribs. Cover, and refrigerate at least 8 hours.
• Preheat grill to medium-high. Thread meat onto skewers, and grill until cooked through, 1 to 3 minutes per side. Serve with kimchi, rice, and lettuce.

KOREAN CHILLI, SESAME & HONEY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Toss the chicken in the soy sauce, sesame oil and ginger. Thread each thigh on two long metal skewers, so that each skewer pierces one side of the thigh. Keep threading the chicken, making sure it's packed onto the skewers tightly. Chill until you're ready to cook. Mix the ingredients for the glaze.
• Heat the BBQ. If using a coal BBQ, wait for the coals to turn ashen before you start cooking. Cook the kebab for 5-8 mins on each side (depending on the heat). Once nicely charred but not fully cooked through, start painting on the glaze. The honey will catch if cooked for too long - the key to nice sticky chicken is applying the glaze in layers, turning the kebab often.
• Once the glaze has been used up and the chicken is cooked through (it'll take about 20 mins in total), transfer to a plate and leave to cool for 5 mins before serving scattered with spring onions.

KOREAN MUSHROOM KEBABS

Steps:

• Alternately thread the mushroom, green onion & green pepper on your skewers. Thread the mushrooms & peppers so they will lay flat on the grill.
• Place skewers in one layer in a snug flat dish.
• Mix together the soy,sugar, oil, garlic, black pepper and 1 tbsp of the sesame seeds.
• Pour the marinade over the skewered mushrooms, flip the skewers so both sides are well coated.cover place in the fridge for 30 minutes up to 2 hours.turn them once.
• Preheat grill or broiler to high.
• Grill or broil the skewers brushing them with the marinade.
• Cook until browned 3-5 minutes per side.
• Just before serving sprinkle with remaining sesame seeds and chopped green onions - serve hot.
