Chicken Skewers

Method

Chicken Skewers Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and coconut milk. Mix well. Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade. Stir to coat the chicken evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best flavor.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Skewers

    If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning. After marinating, thread the chicken pieces onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece.

  3. 3

    Grill the Skewers

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. 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. Remove from the grill and set aside.

Peanut Sauce Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Peanut Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, lime juice, minced garlic, and water. Whisk together until smooth. If you prefer a spicier sauce, add chili paste to taste. Adjust the consistency with additional water if necessary.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve the Dish

    Serve the grilled chicken skewers warm with the peanut sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy your Chicken Satay!
