Ingredients
- 1 pound Beef sirloin
- 0.5 cup Coconut milk
- 0.25 cup Peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce, low sodium
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, fresh grated
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Coriander, ground
- 1 teaspoon Cumin, ground
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric, ground
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 Skewers, wooden or metal
Directions
Step 1
Cut the beef sirloin into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine coconut milk, peanut butter, low sodium soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, grated ginger, minced garlic, coriander, cumin, turmeric, paprika, and black pepper. Whisk together until smooth.
Step 3
Add the beef cubes to the marinade, ensuring that the beef is well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
Step 4
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
Step 5
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Step 6
Thread the marinated beef cubes onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
Step 7
Place skewers on the preheated grill. Cook each side for about 2-3 minutes until the beef is cooked to your preferred level of doneness.
Step 8
Remove from grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve the skewers hot, alongside your favorite low sodium side dishes or a fresh salad.
