Marinade

Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, honey, minced garlic, ground ginger, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth and fully combined.

  2. 2

    Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces or strips, depending on your preference.

  3. 3

    Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

Cooking

  1. 4

    If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.

  2. 5

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

  3. 6

    Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.

  4. 7

    Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

  5. 8

    Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

Serving

  1. 9

    Arrange the Dish

    Serve the chicken satay skewers on a platter with sliced cucumber, julienned carrots, and a cup of peanut sauce for dipping.
