Number Of Ingredients 13

Coarse salt
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/4 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon Thai red curry paste
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 pounds top sirloin beef or shell steak, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
1 red onion, quartered, layers separated
1 can (20 ounces) sliced pineapple in juice, drained, slices quartered
1 package (10 ounces) thin dried Chinese noodles or spaghetti
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat broiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat; line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Soak four 12-inch (or eight 6-inch) wooden skewers in a pan of warm water; set aside. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, make sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, brown sugar, soy sauce, 2 tablespoons vinegar, curry paste, and 1 tablespoon oil. Reserve half the sauce for serving.
  • Thread beef, onion, and pineapple onto skewers. Place on prepared baking sheet, and brush with sauce. Broil, brushing occasionally with sauce, until beef is medium-rare and onion begins to char, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook noodles in boiling salted water, according to package instructions. Drain, and place in a medium bowl. Add cilantro and remaining vinegar and oil; season with salt, and toss to combine. Serve skewers with noodles, reserved sauce, and, if desired, red-pepper flakes.
