Satay is a Southeast Asian dish of skewered meat or seafood that is traditionally cooked on a grill or over a flame. It may be offered as an appetizer or a main dish and is typically served with a spicy satay sauce made of peanut butter and aromatics like ginger and garlic accented with soy sauce and citrus juice. If you can't find beef sirloin for this dish, choose another lean cut of meat such as flank, London broil, eye of round. If you are using bamboo skewers, be sure to soak them in hot water for 15 minutes before using or they will burn on the grill or over the flame.
