Elevate your grilling game with this vibrant Soy-Free Beef Satay recipe, a flavorful twist on the classic Southeast Asian dish perfect for those avoiding soy. Made with tender beef sirloin or flank steak, marinated in a rich blend of coconut milk, coconut aminos, lime juice, and aromatic spices like coriander, cumin, and turmeric, this gluten-free and allergy-friendly recipe delivers bold taste without compromise. The skewers are grilled to perfection, creating smoky charred edges while keeping the beef irresistibly juicy. With just 20 minutes of prep time and an hour of marination, this easy yet impressive dish is ideal for weeknight dinners or backyard barbecues. Pair with a dipping sauce or a crisp veggie side for a wholesome, crowd-pleasing meal.
Begin by soaking the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning during cooking.
Slice the beef into thin strips, approximately 1/4-inch thick and 3 inches long. Place the sliced beef in a shallow dish.
In a medium bowl, combine coconut milk, coconut aminos, lime juice, honey, ground coriander, ground cumin, ground turmeric, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined to make the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the beef strips, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover the dish and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for more intense flavor.
When ready to cook, preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates using vegetable oil.
Thread the marinated beef strips onto the soaked skewers, weaving the skewer in and out of the meat lengthwise.
Place the skewers on the grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the beef is cooked through and has a nice char.
Remove from the grill and let the beef rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the beef satay with your choice of dipping sauce or a side of fresh veggies.
