Thai Beef Satay

Prep: Wash and dry all produce. Soak the skewers in a shallow dish of water. In a small pot, bring 1 cup salted water (double for 4 people) to a boil. Mince or grate the garlic. Zest, then halve the lime. Thinly slice the green onions.

Cook the rice: Add the rice to the boiling water. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover with a lid, and cook until the rice is tender and the water has been absorbed, 12-14 min.

Prep the beef: In a medium bowl, combine the fish sauce, soy sauce, sugar, garlic, lime zest and a drizzle of oil. Add the beef and stir to coat. Thread the beef onto the skewers. (Don't discard the marinade - we'll use it later to make a sauce!)

Broil the broccoli and skewers: Toss the broccoli on a parchment-lined baking sheet with a drizzle of oil. Season with salt and pepper. Place the skewers alongside the broccoli. Broil in the centre of the oven, flipping the skewers halfway through, until golden-brown, 7-10 min.

Make the peanut sauce: Meanwhile, heat a small pot over medium heat. Add the green onion and marinade liquid. Bring to a boil, then whisk in the peanut butter and ½ cup water (double for 4 people) until mixture is smooth. Squeeze in 1 tbsp lime juice. (Add more lime juice, 1 tsp at a time, if you'd like your sauce to be more tangy!)
