01 Step
Recipe View In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, grated onion, tomato paste, olive oil, salt, smoked paprika, allspice, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and powdered ginger. Stir vigorously until the marinade is smooth and well combined. (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View Add the steak cubes to the bowl with the marinade. Toss thoroughly to ensure each piece is evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture to a resealable bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight for a more intense flavor. (2 hours minimum)
03 Step
Recipe View Prepare an outdoor grill for high heat. If using a charcoal grill, wait until the coals are glowing white and very hot. Lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking. (15 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View Thread the marinated steak cubes onto sturdy metal skewers, leaving a small space between each piece for even cooking. (10 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View Place the skewers on the hot grill and cook, turning occasionally, until the steak is cooked to your desired level of doneness. This usually takes about 5 to 6 minutes per side for medium-rare. (10-12 minutes total)
06 Step
Recipe View Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful final product. (5 minutes)
