Ingredients:
- 1/2 pound beef or goat meat, cut into cubes
- 5 cloves garlic

Instructions:
-
Prepare the Meat:
Begin by cutting the beef or goat meat into bite-sized cubes, or to your preferred size. Rinse the meat thoroughly under cold water. Squeeze the juice of one lime over the meat to help neutralize any gamey odors and allow it to sit for about 5-10 minutes. -
Blend the Seasonings:
While the meat is resting, peel and finely chop the garlic cloves. Using a mortar and pestle or a food processor, grind the garlic and salt into a smooth paste. -
Cook the Meat:
In a dry skillet over medium heat, add the meat along with the garlic-salt mixture. There is no need to add water or any additional liquid, as the meat will release its own juices during cooking. Cook the meat until the liquid has evaporated and the meat starts to brown slightly. -
Add Oil:
Once the liquid has reduced and the meat is almost cooked through, add a tablespoon of cooking oil to the skillet. Continue to cook until the meat is dry and well-cooked, and begins to crisp slightly on the edges. -
Season and Serve:
Turn off the heat and transfer the cooked meat to a serving plate. Drizzle sweet soy sauce over the meat and sprinkle with ground black pepper to taste. Garnish with sliced tomato and lettuce if desired. -
Enjoy:
Your No-Grill Beef Satay is now ready to be enjoyed. This dish pairs beautifully with a side of steamed rice or as part of a larger meal.
