Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce
- 2 pounds Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast, Cut Into Bite Size Pieces
- 4 Tablespoons Low Sodium Soy Sauce
- 4 Tablespoons Lime Juice
- 2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil
- 2 teaspoons Cumin
- 4 teaspoons Coriander
- 2 teaspoons Turmeric
- 2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil
- 13 cups Onion, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons Chili Powder
- 1/4 cups Brown Sugar, Packed
- 1/2 cups Water, Or More If Needed
- 1 cup Creamy Peanut Butter, Do Not Use Natural Or Low Fat
- 1 whole Lime, Cut Into Wedges, For Garnish
- 1 bunch Fresh Cilantro For Garnish, Chopped
- 1) Combine all marinade ingredients and whisk well to combine.
- Reserve 5 tablespoons of marinade for the sauce and refrigerate until youre ready to make the sauce.
- Set the remaining marinade aside.
- Cut the chicken into bite size pieces and skewer*.
- Skewer your chicken pieces on presoaked (in water) wooden skewers or metal skewers.
- Pour remaining marinade over chicken skewers being sure to coat thoroughly.
- (I use gloves, because the turmeric can stain your hands).
- Marinate chicken in the refrigerator for an hour.
- 2) For the peanut sauce, heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Saute onions for 5-7 minutes.
- Add chili powder and the reserved 5 tablespoons of marinade, brown sugar, and 1/2 cup of water.
- Keep the pan over heat until very hot.
- Remove from heat and add peanut butter, carefully whisk until completely incorporated.
- Add additional water if the sauce is too thick.
- Loosely cover the pan and set aside.
- To warm the sauce, do so in microwave on 50% power for 30 seconds at a time and stir between.
- Heat until just warm.
- If you over heat the sauce, the oil will separate.
- 3) Preheat grill and cook skewered marinated chicken over medium high heat for 10-15 minutes.
- Serve chicken with peanut sauce and garnish with cilantro and fresh lime wedges.
- Makes approximately 32 6skewers for appetizers or 8 dinner size portion skewers.
- *I like to skewer the chicken first before the marinade is added.
- Its much less messy and when youre entertaining, you wont have to skewer the meat while you have guests.
- Again, I recommend using gloves.
