Time 1h33m

Yield 24 skewers

Number Of Ingredients 13

24 (6-inch) bamboo or wooden skewers
3/4-pound New York strip steak or fillet
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon red chili flakes
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
6 tablespoons (3 ounces) unsalted butter
2 garlic cloves, blanched and chopped finely (about 1 tablespoon)
1 green onion, chopped finely
4 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon red chili flakes

Steps:

  • Soak the bamboo or wooden skewers in cold water and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Cut the steak into 24 (3 by 1-inch) strips, each weighing about 1/2-ounce. Stick a skewer into each strip lengthwise and arrange on a large platter or baking pan. Refrigerate until needed.
  • Prepare the marinade: In a small bowl, combine all the marinade ingredients and pour over the meat, turning to coat all sides. Let marinate at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
  • Preheat the grill or broiler while the steak is marinating.
  • Prepare the sauce: In a small skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add the garlic and green onion and saute over medium-high heat until soft, about 2 minutes. Pour in the hoisin sauce, soy sauce and chili pepper flakes and cook 1 or 2 minutes longer. Strain into a clean pan and whisk in the remaining 4 tablespoons butter. Keep warm.
  • Arrange the steak skewers on the grill or under the broiler,* being careful that the bare ends of the skewers are not directly over (or under) the flame. Grill until medium rare, about 30 to 40 seconds each side.
  • Pour the sauce into a small bowl and set in the center of a large serving platter. Arrange the skewers around the bowl and serve immediately.
  • *Bring your broiler tray directly under the flame for best results.
