Easy Chicken Satay With Peanut Sauce Recipe

INSTRUCTIONS:

Marinade:
  1. Combine the yogurt, ginger, garlic, and curry powder in a shallow mixing bowl, stir to combine. 
  2. Place the chicken strips in the yogurt marinade and gently toss until well coated. 
  3. Cover and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at up to 2 hours.
Peanut Dipping Sauce

  1. Whisk the peanut butter and ¼ cup hot water together in a medium bowl. Stir in remaining ingredients. 
  2. Add additional water if need to adjust consistency. 
  3. Transfer to a small serving bowl and garnish with the chopped peanuts. 
  4. Serve with chicken satay.

To Make Chicken Satay:
  1. Thread the coated chicken strips onto the soaked skewers working the skewer in and out of the meat, down the middle of the piece, so that it stays in place during grilling.
  2. Place a grill pan over medium heat and brush it with oil to prevent the meat from sticking. When pan is hot, grill the chicken satays for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, until nicely seared and cooked through. Serve the satays on a platter lined with lettuce leaves and cilantro; accompanied by a small bowl of peanut sauce on the side.
