Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
Thinly slice the beef sirloin into long strips, about 1/4 inch thick.
In a large bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of minced ginger, 1 tablespoon of lime juice, and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Add the sliced beef to the marinade, making sure each piece is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the coconut milk, creamy peanut butter, remaining tablespoon of soy sauce, remaining tablespoon of brown sugar, remaining tablespoon of lime juice, and chili powder.
Stir the mixture until smooth and warm, then season with salt to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated beef slices onto the soaked skewers, weaving the meat back and forth in a straight line.
Brush the grill with the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Grill the beef skewers for about 3 minutes on each side or until cooked to your desired level of doneness.
Serve the grilled satay beef skewers hot with the peanut sauce on the side. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves if desired for added flavor and presentation.
