Ingredients

Chicken Satay

  • 1 - 1.5 lbs. Fresh Boneless Skinless Chicken Tenderloins
  • 2/3 cup unsweetened coconut milk
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic 4 cloves
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar

Peanut Sauce

  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic 2 cloves
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/8 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper adjust to personal preference.

Supplies

  • Bamboo skewers Soaked in water for at least 30 minutes. You can also use metal skewers.

Instructions

Chicken Satay

  • Place the chicken tenderloins in a shallow dish. In a mixing bowl, add the coconut milk, garlic, curry powder, soy sauce, lemon juice and brown sugar. Stir to combine until the sugar is completely dissolved. Pour the marinade over the chicken tenders.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight. I recommend marinating overnight to achieve the most flavorful chicken.
  • After the chicken has marinated, soak the bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes. Thread the marinated chicken tenders onto the skewers.
  • Preheat your grill over medium heat. Brush the grates with oil. Place the chicken skewers onto to preheated grill and cook for 4 - 6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature is 165 degrees fahrenheit. Serve immediately with peanut sauce for dipping.

Peanut Sauce

  • Add all of the ingredients for the peanut sauce to a mixing bowl. Whisk to combine all ingredients until smooth and creamy. Serve with the chicken satay as a dipping sauce.
