Oven Roasted Suya Beef Strips

Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs Sirloin steak, sliced into thin strips
• 0.5 cup Kuli-kuli or roasted peanut powder
• 1 tablespoon Ginger powder
• 1 tablespoon Garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon Onion powder
• 2 teaspoons Cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Bouillon powder (beef flavor)
• 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Red onion, sliced for garnish(optional)

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and a wire rack.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut powder, ginger, garlic, onion powder, cayenne, paprika, bouillon, and salt to create the Yaji spice mix.

3. 3

   Pat the beef strips dry with paper towels and place them in a large mixing bowl.

4. 4

   Toss the beef strips with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil until evenly coated.

5. 5

   Dredge each beef strip through the Yaji spice mixture, pressing firmly so the coating adheres to all sides.

6. 6

   Arrange the coated beef strips in a single layer on the wire rack, ensuring they do not overlap.

7. 7

   Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of oil over the strips and roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes.

8. 8

   Switch the oven to broil for the last 2 minutes to achieve a slightly charred, smoky finish.

9. 9

   Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving with sliced onions and fresh tomatoes.
