Satay Grilled Beef

Method

1. 1 Mix chili paste with chopped lemongrass, garlic, fish sauce, and sugar to make the marinade.
2. 2 Slice the beef into 8 mm thick slices and marinate for 2 hours in the refrigerator.
3. 3 Skewer the beef slices onto bamboo skewers in a zigzag pattern to make them thick and juicy.
4. 4 Bake at 240 degrees for 8 minutes, flipping once at minute 5.
5. 5 Because chili paste contains a lot of chili oil, it should be grilled quickly at high heat; grilling for too long will cause the chili oil to burn.
6. 6 Sprinkle with crushed roasted peanuts and chopped scallions, then squeeze in some lemon juice before serving.
