Ingredients:
1 pound lean boneless beef sirloin steak
1 tablespoon chopped fresh lemon grass
1 teaspoon minced serrano pepper with seeds
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
1 medium onion, thinly sliced and separated into rings
3 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 cups shredded carrot
1/3 cup chopped fresh mint
vegetable cooking spray
1 tablespoon chopped unsalted dry-roasted peanuts
Directions:
1. Partially freeze steak; trim fat from steak. Slice steak diagonally across grain into 1/4-inch-wide strips, and set aside.
2. Combine lemon grass and next 4 ingredients in a large heavy-duty, zip-top plastic bag; seal bag, and shake well. Add steak to bag; seal bag, and shake until steak is well coated. Marinate in refrigerator 8 hours, turning bag occasionally.
3. Combine onion, sugar, vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl; cover and chill at least 30 minutes. Stir in carrot and mint.
4. Remove steak from marinade; discard marinade. Thread steak onto 4 (12-inch) metal skewers.
5. Coat grill rack with cooking spray; place on grill over medium-hot coals (350° to 400°). Place kabobs on rack; grill, covered, 5 minutes or to desired degree of doneness, turning skewers once. Transfer carrot mixture to a serving platter using a slotted spoon; top with steak, and sprinkle evenly with peanuts.
