Ingredients

• 1 lb beef sirloin, cut into 1
• inch cubes
• 2 tbsp peanut or coconut oil for brushing
• Wooden or metal skewers (8 inches long)
• Salt to taste Suya Spice Blend:
• 2 tbsp ground peanuts
• 1 tsp ground ginger
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp ground black pepper
• 1/4 tsp ground cumin
• 1/4 tsp ground cloves
• 1/2 tsp dried thyme
• 1/2 tsp paprika
• 1/4 tsp ground cardamom
• 1/4 tsp ground allspice
• 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
• 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

1. Combine the Suya Spice Blend ingredients in a small bowl and mix well. In a large bowl, toss the beef cubes with half of the Suya Spice Blend, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Allow to marinate for 30 minutes. Preheat your grill or broiler to medium high heat. Thread the beef onto skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece. Brush with oil and season with salt to taste. Grill or broil the Suya Skewers for 4 minutes per side or until desired doneness is reached.

Chef’s Insight

The secret to perfect Suya Skewers is in the marination process; allow the beef to absorb the spices for at least 30 minutes for optimal flavor.

Notes

Be sure to use wooden or metal skewers that are at least 8 inches long for easy handling and grilling.
