Beef Satay; aka the best kabobs you’ve ever had
½ lbs. beef (I’ve been using sirloin tips, but given how long you marinate…)
¼ cup dark soy sauce
¼ tsp chili paste
1 tbsp hoisin sauce
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp orange marmalade
1 clove garlic, minced
1 slice ginger, minced
Equipment needed:
Bucket / shallow pan for marinating
Wooden skewers (soak in water 20 min if using over open flame)
Grill/ George foreman / bbq briquettes / hot wood coals
- cut beef across the grain into thin strips (or medium size chunks) about 1 inch long.
- combine remaining ingredients. Marinate beef in the refrigerator overnight or at minimum 2 hours. Drain the beef, reserving the marinade.
- Thread beef onto skewer evenly. (If you want it to stand on it’s own, also put green pepper cubes and onion bits alternating.)
- Grill on both sides; until the meat is seared, you want the heat very high so that it seals the juices in.
Serve with white or sticky rice and a side dish of veggies (obviously).
