Equipment
- 4 skewers, 6-inches long (If using wooden skewers, soak for 30 minutes)
Ingredients
Steak & Shrimp
- 4 strip loin roast medallions 8 oz each
- Steak rub of your choice
- 8 colossal shrimp size 6/8, shells removed but with tail on for an awesome presentation
- ½ tablespoon chili oil spread optional
- ½ tablespoon avocado oil optional
Teriyaki Sauce
- ½ cup low-sodium soy sauce
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons fresh ginger grated
- 1 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 3 tablespoons mirin
- ¼ cup water mixed with 3 teaspoons cornstarch
Instructions
Prepare the Steak
- Rub the steak medallions with your favourite steak seasoning and set aside.
Grill the Steak
- Place the steaks, fat side down on the upper rack of your cold gas grill. Turn the heat on medium-high heat and close the lid. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 120°F. Open the grill and prepare the teriyaki sauce as per the instructions below. While the sauce is being prepared preheat the sear zone on medium heat. Sear the steaks for about one minute per side until slightly charred. Remove from the grill to a board and let them rest while you grill the shrimp.
Make the Teriyaki Sauce
- In a small saucepan, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, honey, sesame oil, and mirin. Heat over medium-high heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a low boil. Add the cornstarch mixture and simmer until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Keep warm until ready to serve.
Grill the Shrimp
- Thread two shrimp onto each skewer, then brush the shrimp with the chili oil spread and avocado oil mixture. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side, until they are opaque and cooked through.
Assemble the Dish
- Place a shrimp skewer into each steak, then drizzle the teriyaki sauce generously over the top.
Serve
- Serve the grilled steak and shrimp with your favourite sides, and enjoy this irresistible, flavour-packed meal!
