Cameroonian Suya (Beef Kabob)

1 lb flank steak
1/2 tsp sugar
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp ground cinnamon
pinch of chili powder
2 tsp onion salt
1/3 cup peanuts, finely crushed
vegetable oil for brushing

Cut the steak into fairly thin, long pieces, i.e. across the grain of the flank steak. Place in a bowl or shallow dish.

Mix the sugar, garlic powder. spices, onion salt and crushed peanuts together in a small bowl. then mix with the steak.

Thread the meat onto skewers, folding it over on itself so that it's kabob shape. Push the meat close together. Place in a shallow dish, cover loosely with foil and leave to marinate in a cool place for a few hours.

Set gas grill to medium or wait until charcoal grill is flame free. Brush the meat with a little oil and then cook for about 15 minutes or until brown on the outside.

Jean's notes: I didn't marinate for very long and it was still good. I used raw peanuts, but roasted would probably be good as well. I liked this because it tasted like a real marinate and I could eat it!
