Anticuchos Peruanos
Ingredients
1 1/2 lbs. lean chuck roast
1 C. water
1/4 C. red wine vinegar
1 Tbsp. tomato paste
1 tsp. garlic salt
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
1 bay leaf
1/2 C. chopped Jalapeno peppers, seeds and stems removed

Cooking Instructions
Cut meat in 1 inch squares. Cutting meat while partially frozen makes this very easy. Combine remaining ingredients in a large glass or plastic bowl. Stir in meat; cover tightly, and marinate at least 24 hours, stirring occasionally. When ready to cook, place 5-6 cubes of meat on a skewer and grill over hot coals, basting with 1/2 cup marinade. simmer remaining marinade about 15 minutes and serve with anticuchos. This was traditionally served as an hors d’oeuvre in Lima, Peru and is similar to the anticuchos served during Fiesta Week at “A Night in Old San Antonio”. Serves 4.
