Chef John's irresistible take on traditional Thai Malaysian beef satay features succulent sirloin strips marinated in a sweet and zesty sauce, perfect for grilling.
Ingredients:
  • 0.25 cup packed brown sugar
  • 0.25 cup fish sauce
  • 2 tablespoons minced onion
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons ground coriander
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger root
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 0.125 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 2-inch piece of fresh lemon grass (white part only)
  • 2 pounds beef top sirloin, trimmed
  • 4 12-inch long metal skewers
Instructions:
  • Combine brown sugar, fish sauce, garlic, onion, oil, soy sauce, coriander, ginger, cumin, turmeric, and cayenne pepper in a mixing bowl and whisk until smooth.
  • Gently crush lemongrass with the back of a chef's knife and finely chop before adding to marinade.
  • Slice beef sirloin into thin strips, about 2 1/2 inches long and 1/8 inch thick. Toss beef in marinade until fully coated, approximately 1 minute. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours.
  • Prepare your outdoor grill by preheating it to high heat and lightly oiling the grate.
  • Take out beef from marinade and gently shake off any extra marinade. Skewer 1/4 of the meat on each metal skewer. Dispose of any leftover marinade.
  • Place skewers on the hot grill; grill until meat no longer sticks, about 1-2 minutes. Turn skewers over and grill until well browned with grill marks, for 2-2 1/2 minutes. Turn skewers again and cook until meat is slightly pink in the center, around 2 minutes. Transfer skewers to a serving platter; allow to rest for 2 minutes before serving.
