Beef Skewers
 
  • 1.5 lbs. steak, cut against the grain into very thin strips (see photos and video)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon garlic paste
  • 1 tablespoon ginger paste
  • 1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1 lime
  • Prep (optional): Soak your skewers – 15 minutes minimum for wood skewers.
  • Beef: Mix the beef strips with the other beef ingredients. If you have time to marinate, go for it. A 30-45 minute marinating session is delicious! But I promise that if all you have is 5-10 minutes, they’ll still be great.
  • Skewer: Thread the beef onto skewers – just scrunch it on there (see video). Place skewers on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Top with freshly cracked black pepper.
  • Broil: Arrange an oven rack 4-6 inches below the heating element. Preheat the broiler on high heat for a few minutes. Broil the beef for 6 minutes – we’re going for caramelization on that top surface. (Alternative cooking methods in notes below)
  • Serve: Let the beef stand for a few minutes; brush the golden tops with the pan juices, and drizzle with a bit of lime juice.
