Method

For the Chicken Marinade

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into thin strips, about 1 inch wide.

  2. 2

    Make the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine coconut milk, soy sauce, ground turmeric, ground coriander, minced garlic, grated ginger, brown sugar, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the chicken strips to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.

For the Peanut Sauce

  1. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    In a small saucepan over low heat, combine peanut butter, coconut milk, soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, chili flakes, and water.

  2. 5

    Cook the Sauce

    Stir the mixture continuously until smooth and heated through. Allow to simmer for about 5 minutes, then remove from heat.

For Assembly

  1. 6

    Soak Skewers

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

  2. 7

    Skewer Chicken

    Thread marinated chicken strips onto the skewers, about 4-5 pieces per skewer.

  3. 8

    Grill the Skewers

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the skewers for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

  4. 9

    Serve

    Serve the chicken satay hot with the peanut sauce on the side for dipping.
