Thai Steak Skewers

(Courtesy of Taste of Home)

Ingredients:
1/4 c. packed brown sugar
2 Tbsp. lime juice
2 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 Tbsp. curry powder
1 tsp. lemon juice
1 can (14 oz.) coconut milk, divided
1 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes, divided
2 lbs. boneless beef sirloin steak, cut into 1/4 inch slices
2 medium limes, halved and thinly sliced, optional
1/4 c. creamy peanut butter
1 Tbsp. chopped salted peanuts

Directions:
In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the first 5 ingredients.  Add 1/4 c. coconut milk and 1 tsp. pepper flakes.  Add steak; seal bag and turn to coat.  Refrigerate 2-4 hours.

Drain and discard marinade.  Thread beef onto 16 metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately threading beef with lime slices, if desired.  Grill, covered, over medium-hot heat for 6-8 minutes or until desired doneness, turning occasionally.

In a small saucepan, combine peanut butter with the remaining coconut milk and pepper flakes.  Heat through.  Transfer to a small bowl; sprinkle with peanuts.  Serve with skewers.
