Satay Chicken Ingredients
Method
Cooking Directions
- 1
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, combine the minced lemongrass, ground fennel seeds, ground cumin, turmeric, minced garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar, and lime juice. Mix well to create the marinade.

Marinate the Chicken
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade. Toss to coat the chicken evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours for best flavor.

Prepare the Skewers
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning. Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers.

Cook the Skewers
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

Serve
Serve the satay chicken skewers with fresh cucumber slices on the side. Optionally, drizzle with spicy peanut sauce for added flavor.
