Ingredients

**Peanut Sauce**:

½ cup creamy peanut butter

⅓ cup tamari or soy sauce

23 tbsp Thai red curry paste

1 tbsp chopped pickled ginger

1 tbsp toasted sesame oil

**Steak Skewers**:

⅓ cup sweet Thai chili sauce

⅓ cup tamari or soy sauce

6 cloves garlic, chopped

1 tbsp freshly grated ginger

2 tbsp chili paste (Thai curry paste or gochujang)

2 lbs flank or skirt steak, cubed

Skewers

Rice or coconut rice, for serving

Garnishes: avocado tossed with lime & cilantro, sesame seeds, lime wedges

Instructions

  1. **Make the peanut sauce**: Blend all sauce ingredients until smooth. Thin with water if needed.
  2. **Marinate the steak**: Mix chili sauce, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and chili paste. Toss beef cubes in the marinade for at least 10 minutes.
  3. **Skewer and grill**: Thread the beef onto skewers (optional: add pineapple). Grill over medium-high heat for 8–12 minutes, turning to char evenly.
  4. **Assemble bowls**: Serve skewers over rice, drizzled with peanut sauce. Add avocado mix, cilantro, sesame seeds, and lime wedges on the side.

Notes

  • Substitute flank steak with chicken or shrimp if desired.
  • Add bell peppers, onions, or pineapple between steak cubes for visual interest and freshness.
  • For extra heat: use spicier chili paste or add a dash of sriracha.
  • You can make the peanut sauce a day ahead and store in the fridge.
  • To reheat skewers: gently warm in a skillet to preserve juiciness, and top with fresh sauce and avocado.
