Method

Slice the beef into long thin strips, across the grain. Set aside. Dissolve brown sugar into warm water, then whisk into the peanut butter. Add the remaining ingredients and blend WELL. Divide the mixture into 3/4 and 1/4 portions. Marinate the strips of beef in the 3/4 of mixture, reserving the remaining 1/4 for dipping sauce later. Marinate overnight, or at least 6 hours for the best taste. Skewer the strips, covering as much of the skewer as possible (this prevents the skewer from burning on the grill). Grill over high heat for about 5-7 minutes on each side. Serve with Jasmine rice, a fresh veggie stir-fry, and the dipping sauce.

 

Notes: For a leaner meal, you can use chicken breast in this recipe and omit the oil. Feel free to add or subtract the pepper sauce to taste for spiciness. DO NOT substitute any other pepper sauce though; it will not have the same results. Habanera peppers have a very distinct flavor.

 

Number of Servings: 4-6
