Soy sauce and balsamic vinegar? We did a double take when our colleague told us that these were indeed the ingredients for her brochettes inspired by the flavours of Iran, her birth country. And to do as she does, we remove the meat from the skewers with pita bread, which soaks up the juices.

Ingredients

- 1/3 cup (75 ml) olive oil
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp crush black peppercorns
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 2.2 lb (1 kg) filet mignon or flap steak, sliced into large cubes
- 8 metal skewers or wooden skewers soaked in water for 30 minutes

Preparation

- In a large bowl, combine the oil with the soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, pepper and garlic. Add the meat and mix to coat well. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour for filet mignon, or 24 hours for the flap steak (see note).
- Drain the meat and discard the marinade. Thread the meat onto skewers.
- Preheat the grill, setting the burners to high. Oil the grate.
- Grill the skewers for 4 minutes on each side or until rare or pink. Season lightly with salt (the marinade is already salted).

Note from Ricardo

For less expensive skewers, we opt for flap steak over filet mignon. In this case, marinate the meat for 24 hours to tenderize it.
