• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Soak bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning during grilling.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, mix together coconut aminos, rice vinegar, grated ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, and red chili flakes.

Add the sliced beef to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for maximum flavor.

Step 5

Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

Step 6

Carefully thread marinated beef strips onto the soaked bamboo skewers.

Step 7

Grill the beef skewers for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the beef is cooked to your desired doneness.

Step 8

While grilling, brush the remaining marinade over the skewers to enhance flavor.

Step 9

Garnish the cooked skewers with sliced green onions and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Step 10

Serve hot and enjoy your Whole30 beef yakitori with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
