Step 1
Thread beef cubes onto soaked skewers, leaving 1 inch at each end. Pat dry with a paper towel.
Step 2
Warm kecap manis in a small bowl. Stir in sliced shallots, lime juice, and minced chili if using.
Step 3
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat until smoking, about 2 minutes.
Step 4
Grill skewers 3–4 minutes per side, rotating once, until edges are charred and beef reaches desired doneness.
Step 5
Brush grilled beef generously with kecap manis mixture. Let cool 1 minute so lettuce won't wilt.
Step 6
Serve skewers on a bed of lettuce leaves, topped with cilantro and green onion. Pour extra kecap on the side.
