Instructions

1. To make the peanut sauce: Add all ingredients to a glass jar or blender and blend to combine, adding water as needed to thin the sauce.
2. In a bowl, mix the sweet Thai chili sauce, tamari/soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and chili paste. Add the beef and toss. If time allows, let sit for 10 minutes to deepen the flavor.
3. Thread the beef onto the skewers.
4. Set your grill, grill pan, or skillet to medium-high heat. Grill the skewers until lightly charred, turning them occasionally throughout cooking, about 8 to 12 minutes total, depending on your desired doneness.
5. Serve the steak over plates of rice with limes, avocado, sesame seeds, cilantro, and peanut sauce. Keep extra peanut sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy!
