FAQs
1. Can I marinate the beef overnight?
Yes! Marinating overnight allows the flavors to penetrate the beef more deeply, resulting in a more tender and flavorful kebab.
2. What can I substitute for the soy sauce?
Tamari or coconut aminos are good gluten-free alternatives. For a less salty option, reduce the amount and add a touch more sweetness with honey or brown sugar.
