- Slice chicken thighs into strips. Thread on soaked wood or metal skewers, 3 slices per skewer. Place skewers in a flat dish.
- Combine marinade ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth.
- Pour marinade over chicken skewers. Marinate 4-6 hours or overnight.
- Grill over indirect heat until chicken is no longer pink inside. Serve with peanut and cucumber sauces. Can be made under a broiler.
- Peanut Sauce: In a small saucepan, combine water, peanut butter, and garlic. Over medium heat, stir until the mixture comes to a boil.
- Remove from heat and add remaining ingredients. Cool until serving time. Lasts 3-5 days in the refrigerator.
