Chicken Preparation
- 1
Marinate the Chicken
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, minced ginger, brown sugar, coconut milk, and salt. Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and mix until well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.

Prepare Skewers
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill. If using metal skewers, ensure they are clean and ready for use.

Make the Peanut Sauce
