Servings: 6
Equipment
- Food Processor or blender, skewers (soaked 30 minutes if wood)
Ingredients
- 2½ lb Beef sirloin, cut into long ¼ inch strips
- 1 cup Peanuts, roasted
- 1 tbsp Ginger root, grated
- 3 cloves Garlic, crushed
- 1 Chicken bouillon cube, crushed
- 2 tsp Paprika
- ½ tsp Cayenne pepper
- 1½ tsp Onion powder
- 1 pinch Salt (omit if salted peanuts used)
Instructions
- In a food processor or blender, pulse peanuts until crumbled (but not a paste). Add remaining ingredients and pulse until combined.
- Thread meat strips onto skewers and press peanut mixture firmly into the meat. Refrigerate the meat for 30 minutes or more to let the flavors infuse the meat.
- Place skewers on a preheated oiled grill. Cook meat for a few minutes on each side, turning just once to avoid losing some of the crust. Careful not to burn.
