Ingredients

• Cooking Spray
• 2 pounds sirloin steak or beef round, cut into 2-inch cubes
• 1 large zuccini, cut into 1/2-inch rounds
• Metal or wooden skewers (if wood, soak in water for 1 hour)
• 1/4 c. black bean sauce (or Hoisan Sauce)
• 1 T. rice wine vinegar
• 2 t. sesame oil
• 1 T sesame seeds
• 1 c. quick cooking brown rice
• 1/2 c. minced red bell pepper
• Salt & ground black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Coat an outdoor grill or stove-top grill pan with cooking spray and preheat to medium-high.

In a small bowl, whisk together black bean sauce, rice wine vinegar and sesame oil. Brush mixture all over beef and zucchini. Place skewers on hot grill for five minutes, turning once during cooking. Sprinkle sesame seeds all over skewers and grill 2 more minute, until steak is cooked through.

Meanwhile, cook rice according to package directions adding bell pepper at the beginning of the cooking time. Season rice, to taste, with salt and pepper. Serve half of the beef skews and all the zucchini skewers over rice. Save remaining beef skewers for another meal.
