Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds beef flank steaks
  • 1/3 cup minced yellow onion
  • 1/3 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup dark sesame oil
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 teaspoons minced jalapeño
  • juice of 1/2 lime, plus wedges for garnish
  • 1 tablespoon chili paste
  • 2 teaspoons minced gingerroot
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter

Preparation

Step 1

Remove the beef from the marinade and thread lengthwise onto 16 skewers. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and reserve.
Prepare a grill for a hot fire. Grill the beef on the first side until browned, about 2 minutes. Turn over and grill to the desired doneness, about 2 minutes more for medium rare. Bring the marinade to a full boil. Add the peanut butter and stir until smooth, thinning with water as necessary to give it a saucelike consistency.
Serve the beef satay with the sauce, garnished with the lime wedges
