Beef Satay with Peanut Sauce

Abby Shelton does it again!

1.5 pounds Sirloin tip steak, cut into 2" cubes (you could use chicken also or shrimp)
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
juice of 1 orange
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup water
1/2 cup peanut butter (remember to use natural! either creamy or chunky is fine!)
1/2 cup 1% milk
1/2 tablespoon red pepper flakes (because some like it is HOT!)
2 green onions (otherwise known as scallions), sliced thinly

1. Mix OJ, vinegar, water, salt and black pepper in a bowl. Place steak into marinate and let soak for 1 hour at least.
2. While steak marinates, prepare the sauce. Combine peanut butter, milk and red pepper flakes in a bowl. You can change the thickness by adding more milk or the spiciness by adding more red pepper.
3. Once steak has marinated, remove the meat and pat dry, save the liquid.
4. Heat a saute pan over medium-high, spray lightly with cooking spray. Place meat in pan and let brown until meat easily pulls off bottom of pan, flip and repeat until all sides are cooked. ***
5. When you flip meat to its final side, add half of the marinate to pan. Stir briskly, scrapping up any brown bits stuck to the bottom of the pan. Remove meat from pan.
6. Serve beef topped with peanut sauce and some slices of green onion.

**If using shrimp cook only about 3 minutes total but do flip the shrimp half way through - when you flip them add the marinate

ENJOY!
