About this dish
Beef, bell pepper and onion alternate on soy-marinated skewers that are turned every two minutes for six to eight minutes.

By the time the pepper edges are lightly charred, the glaze has reduced to a shine. They rest until the handles are cool enough to pick up.
Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Soak the wooden skewers in water for 20 minutes.
Cut 500 g beef into bite-sized cubes, then cut the bell pepper and onion into similar pieces so everything grills at the same pace.
- 2
Mix 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon oligosaccharide syrup, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Stir until the syrup is fully loosened into the marinade.
- 3
Add the beef to the marinade and rest it for 20 minutes.
Turn it once halfway through so the surfaces are evenly coated, and avoid extending the time too much so the soy flavor does not become harsh.
- 4
Thread the beef, bell pepper, and onion onto the skewers in alternating order.
Do not pack them too tightly. Leave small gaps so heat can reach the sides of the beef and the vegetables can soften without steaming heavily.
- 5
Heat the grill pan well over medium-high heat, then add the skewers.
Turn them about every 2 minutes and grill for 6 to 8 minutes, until the marinade looks glossy and reduced on the beef.
- 6
Turn off the heat when the beef is browned on the outside and the bell pepper edges are lightly charred.
Rest briefly so the glaze settles, then serve while warm enough to hold and eat comfortably.
