Satay meat marinade.

I created and used this Marinade on both chicken and pork for one meal (marinated individually of course), and it had the exact Asian flavours I was looking for once I grilled the meat.  (This was a throw together recipe where I had an idea of what I wanted, and the results worked out very well!)

1/2 cup Soy Sauce
1 tsp Ground Ginger
1 tsp Garlic
1 tbsp Sesame Oil
1/4 cup Lime Juice
4 tsp Brown Sugar

Mix together and pour over thinly slice meat (Pork, Chicken, or Beef), making sure that all surfaces come in contact with the marinade.  The easiest way to do this is to use a large zip top bag; place the meat and the marinade in the bag and seal it without removing any excess air, next massage the meat and marinade together so that all the solid surfaces come in contact with the liquid, finally remove as much air from the bag as possible and let it marinate for an hour.

Skewer the meat (because thin slices will tend to fall through the grill without them), and grill them until they are done (cooking times very depending on the thickness).  I served these with Costco's "Thai Kitchen sweet red chili sauce", but honestly the flavour from the marinade was so nice it really did not need a sauce.

Enjoy!
