Char-Broiled Steak with Hoisin-Peanut Sauce Hoisin sauce is a versatile ingredient worth having on hand for quick meals. Use it as the lone seasoning when broiling or grilling meats or fish, or mix it with other flavorings in dressings, marinades or toppings.
1/2 cup hoisin sauce*
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 lb. beef sirloin or top round steak, sliced (1/2 inch thick)**
1/4 cup chopped dry-roasted peanuts
1. In small bowl, stir together hoisin sauce, peanut butter and vinegar until smooth; reserve 1/3 cup for dipping sauce.
2. Heat broiler. Thread steak onto 4 (10-inch) metal skewers; place on foil-lined baking sheet. Brush with half of the remaining hoisin sauce mixture. Broil 4 to 6 inches from heat 5 to 7 minutes for medium-rare or until of desired doneness, turning once and brushing with sauce halfway through.
3. Serve sprinkled with peanuts. Pass reserved hoisin sauce mixture for dipping.
TIPS *Hoisin sauce is a thick, sweet, reddish-brown sauce made with soybeans, chiles, garlic, vinegar and spices. You can find it in Asian markets or in the Asian section of your grocery store.
**For easier slicing, place meat in freezer 30 minutes before slicing.

This is something I just don't understand this. Pamela Anderson shows absolutely no respect for herself or for marriage. She is in her third marriage for the last 2 months, and now she is already thinking of ending it. Yesterday she filed for divorce, and now she says she is working it out. Marriage is not temporary. You need to think before entering a committment as this. Before being married to her current husband, Rick Salomon, she was married to Kid Rock, but that only lasted 3 months. She was married to her first husband, Tommy Lee, for 3 years, during wich they had 2 children. What a shining example she is for her children.
