Instructions

1. Watch how to make this recipe.
2. Special equipment: Metal or wooden skewers
3. Coat an outdoor grill or stove-top grill pan with cooking spray and preheat to medium-high.
4. Skewer steak and zucchini on separate skewers. Set aside. 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. Grill skewers for 5 minutes, turning once during cooking. Sprinkle sesame seeds all over skewers and grill 2 more minutes, until steak is cooked through and seeds are golden brown.
