Thai Chicken Satay

(52)

This Thai chicken satay recipe is quick to prep, but best if the chicken is left to marinate for a few hours or more. Skewer up for the grill or cook on the stove, and serve with Thai peanut sauce.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • ½ cup canned coconut milk

  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground coriander

  • 1 teaspoon yellow curry powder

  • 1 teaspoon fish sauce

  • ½ teaspoon chili oil

  • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into strips

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

  • 1 tablespoon chopped unsalted peanuts

  • 12 wooden skewers, soaked in water for 15 minutes

  • 1 cup prepared Thai peanut sauce

Directions

  1. Stir coconut milk, ground coriander, curry powder, fish sauce, and chili oil together in a medium bowl. Add chicken breast strips, and stir to coat. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, and up to 2 hours.

  2. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat. Thread chicken strips onto skewers; discard marinade.

  3. Grill chicken until no longer pink, about 2 to 3 minutes per side, depending on how thick your strips are. Transfer to a serving plate, and garnish with cilantro and chopped peanuts. Serve with peanut sauce for dipping.

Cook’s Note

To save time, I buy chicken tenderloin strips, which are already boned, skinned, and a nice size.
