Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds fillet of beef, or 4 whole chicken breasts
1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger
1 onion, cut into chunks
4 cloves garlic
1 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon sambal (Indonesian chile paste), or 1 hot red chile
Juice of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
Peanut Sauce
Preparation
Trim fat from beef or chicken. Cut into strips about 3 inches long and 1/2 inch thick. Refrigerate until needed.
Combine remaining ingredients in blender, and puree until smooth. Pour over meat, and mix to coat evenly. Marinate at least 1 hour or overnight.
Preheat grill or grill pan until hot. Thread a piece of meat lengthwise on each skewer, and grill until done, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Baste occasionally with marinade during cooking. Serve immediately with peanut sauce.
