Ingredient Substitution Guide

Preparation

Step 1
Cut the meat into 12 thin slices. Place each slice on a flat surface and pound lightly.
Step 2
Soak the skewers in water to prevent burning.
Step 3
Combine all the remaining ingredients except the rice, and add the beef. Let stand 1 hour.
Step 4
Meanwhile, prepare heat for grilling or broiling the meat. Prepare a charcoal fire beneath a grill, or preheat the broiler.
Step 5
Drain the skewers. Thread three pieces of beef on each. Grill or broil the meat until cooked to the desired degree of doneness, turning once. Serve with rice.
