hoisin marinated beef skeweres with peanut dipping sauce
Ingredients
- 1 pound beef top sirloin steak, cut 1 inch thick
- 4 tablespoons hoisin sauce, divided
- 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
- 1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1/4 cup water
Directions
Cut beef steak crosswise into 1/4-inch thick strips. Combine 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce and beef in medium bowl; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes to 2 hours.
Meanwhile, combine remaining 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce, peanut butter, lime juice and crushed red pepper. Stir in water. Set aside.
Soak eight 10-inch bamboo skewers in water 10 minutes; drain. Thread beef, weaving back and forth, onto each skewer.
Place skewers on rack in broiler pan so surface of beef is 2 to 3 inches from heat. Broil 4 to 5 minutes for medium rare (145°F) to medium (160°F) doneness, turning once. Serve with peanut sauce.
