Beef Suya image

Scents are something normally associated with memory and nostalgia. As a child, I remember the wafting aroma of suya dancing down the street in Nigeria. This dish will be a showstopper and flavor bomb, something your guests will take with them in their memory bank too.

Time 15m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
2 1/4 teaspoons peanut butter powder (see Cook's Note)
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon kosher salt
One 4-gram Maggi chicken flavor bouillon cube, crushed
Canola or vegetable oil, for the grill pan
1 1/2 pounds boneless rib eye beef, thinly sliced into strips

Steps:

  • Make the spice blend. In a small bowl, combine all the spice blend ingredients until incorporated. Reserve 3 tablespoons for garnish.
  • Prepare the suya. Place the beef in a large bowl. Add the spice blend and mix well to coat the meat. Cover the bowl in plastic wrap and transfer to the refrigerator to marinate for 1 hour if time allows.
  • Place a grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the grill pan with oil. Grill in batches, turning occasionally, until cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining 3 tablespoons spice blend.
