Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F. Spread the 1 lb frozen fries on a baking sheet and bake until golden and crispy, about 25 minutes, shaking halfway.

  2. Step 2

    Cut the 1 lb beef sirloin into thin strips. In a bowl, toss with 2 tbsp suya spice mix and 2 tbsp vegetable oil until well coated.

  3. Step 3

    Thread the beef onto skewers. Slice the 1 red bell pepper into chunks and thread them between the beef pieces.

  4. Step 4

    Heat a grill pan or skillet over high heat. Cook the skewers for 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your liking, about 6 minutes total.

  5. Step 5

    In a small bowl, mix 0.25 cup mayonnaise and 2 tbsp ketchup to make the dipping sauce.

  6. Step 6

    Serve the hot skewers with the fries and sauce on the side. Sprinkle extra suya spice over the fries if you like.
