Hawaiian Beef Teriyaki

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pounds sirloin steak, cut into 1/4-inch strips
• 3/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/2-inch slice fresh ginger
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 pineapple, peeled and sliced lengthwise
• 1 tablespoon chiffonade or thinly sliced mint leaves

Directions

Combine soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sugar and water. Marinate meat in the mixture in a plastic bag overnight in the refrigerator.

Preheat the grill to high heat. Skewer meat on skewers. Cook over hot coals until done to your liking, about 4 to 5 minutes for medium rare.

Place pineapple slices on grill. Cook on both sides until there are grill marks and the natural sugars have helped it to brown, about 2 minutes per side.

Place beef skewers on top of grilled pineapple slices and garnish with mint.
