Chicken Satay

Main Courses  

Ingredients

3 Tbsp Peanut butter
2 Tbsp Soy sauce
3 Tbsp Lime juice
2 Garlic cloves
3 Tbsp Honey
1 Chilli
6 Tbsp Coconut milk
3 Chicken breast

Method

To make the marinade, mix the lime juice, crushed garlic, chopped chilli, soy sauce, peanut butter and honey in a bowl. Cut the skinless chicken into strips or pieces and add to the marinade, stirring well to coat it. Leave to marinade for at least 3 hours.

Thread the pieces of chicken onto skewers and grill on each side for about 3-4 minutes.

Pour the marinade into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Add the coconut milk and cook for 1 minute or until the mixture is the thickness you require. Serve with the chicken.

Variation

Use boned skinless chicken thighs instead of chicken breast. You can leave these whole and roast them instead of threading pieces onto skewers.

To make a thicker sauce use creamed coconut with a bit of water instead of coconut milk.

I sometimes add freshh ginger grated or finely diced.
