SAUCE: On a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet, toss tomatoes with half of oil, salt and pepper. Arrange cut side up.

Meanwhile, in saucepan, heat remaining oil over medium-high heat, add onion, ginger, garlic, coriander, paprika and jalapeno. Cook, stirring until onion is softened, about 4 minutes. Transfer mixture to food processor. Add tomatoes and vinegar. Pulse until blended, about 2 minutes. Transfer mixture back to saucepan. Stir in pomegranate molasses and maple syrup. Bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer until thickened, about 7 minutes. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 1 week.)

(Make-ahead: refrigerate for up to 1 month.) Thread beef strips onto 12 skewers. Broil or grill until pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side. To serve: brush with Sauce and sprinkle with dukkah. Serve remaining sauce on the side for dipping.
