the Moment

Another steak marinade! This one had an added bonus of a cilantro lime sauce. Only, I forgot to make the sauce. I was so focused on the marinade I didn't read the rest of the recipe. Which is funny considering I had to read the recipe to make a grocery list! 

Ah well. It was a good steak. 99% of the time with a marinade I do cubes and put them on skewers even when the recipe doesn't ask for it. But for a recipe that actually ASKs for skewers I don't do it. I'm such a mess sometimes. 

Honey Soy Steak Kebabs with Cilantro Lime Sauce

Recipe from Flavor the Moment

Serves 4

Marinade:

• 1/4 c  Sodium Soy Sauce
• 3 T honey
• 2 T olive oil
• 1 T lime juice
• 1 large clove garlic
• 2 lbs. top sirloin steak fat trimmed and cut into 1″ cubes, seasoned with salt and pepper
• 1 red onion peeled and cut into chunks

Cilantro Lime Sauce:

• 1 c cilantro leaves
• 1 garlic clove
• 1 1/2 T lime juice
• 1/2 tsp honey
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Prepare the marinade:

Whisk the soy sauce, 3 tablespoons honey, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon lime juice, and garlic clove in a small bowl until combined.

Place the meat in a bowl or baking dish. Pour the marinade into the bowl and toss to coat the meat completely. Cover and marinate for up to 3 hours or overnight.

Preheat the grill to medium and oil the grates.

Thread the chunks of steak and red onion onto (4) large metal skewers. Grill for 8-10 minutes, turning every 2 minutes until each side is charred and the meat is cooked to the desired degree of doneness.

Remove from heat, cover loosely in foil, and let rest for 2-3 minutes.

Prepare the Cilantro Lime Sauce:

Place the cilantro, garlic clove, lime juice, honey, salt, and pepper in the bowl of a food processor. Process until coarsely chopped. With the machine running, add the olive oil through the feed tube and process until the sauce is smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.

Serve the steak kebabs with the cilantro lime sauce and enjoy!
