Instructions

Step 1: In a bowl, mix 4 minced garlic cloves, 3 tbsp red wine vinegar, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 2 tbsp vegetable oil to create a marinade.
Step 2: Add 1 lb of 1-inch cubed beef sirloin to the marinade, tossing to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

Step 4: Grill the beef skewers for 3-4 minutes per side until cooked to medium-rare and nicely charred on the edges.
Step 5: While the beef cooks, combine 3 tbsp aji amarillo paste, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, and 1 tbsp lime juice in a small bowl to make the sauce.
Step 6: Serve the hot beef anticuchos with the aji amarillo sauce drizzled on top or on the side for dipping.
