Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Nigerian Suya Skewers.
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, blend finely ground roasted peanuts with cayenne pepper, paprika, salt, ground ginger, garlic powder, and onion powder to create a flavorful spice blend.
Step 2
Next, place your beef pieces into a resealable plastic bag and generously add the spice mixture.
Step 3
Seal the bag tightly and give it a good shake until the beef is thoroughly coated.
Step 4
Allow the beef to marinate in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to absorb all those delicious flavors.
Step 5
While the beef is marinating, preheat your outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grill grate to ensure nothing sticks.
Step 6
Once marinated, thread the beef onto skewers, alternating with vibrant red bell pepper, onion, and halved mushrooms for a visually appealing dish.
Step 7
Grill the skewers on the preheated grill, turning them occasionally, until the beef is beautifully browned and the vegetables are tender, which should take around 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 8
Enjoy the delightful aroma and the burst of flavors as you savor each bite of this grilled masterpiece.
