Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb)
  • 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken: Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, mix coconut milk, lime juice, minced garlic, and brown sugar. Add chicken and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  2. Prepare Skewers: Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes if using; otherwise, skip this step.
  3. Grill the Chicken: Thread marinated chicken onto skewers (3-4 pieces per skewer). Preheat grill to medium-high (400°F). Grill skewers for about 5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. Make Peanut Sauce: Combine peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, and red pepper flakes in a bowl. Mix until smooth.
  5. Serve: Plate grilled satay, drizzle with peanut sauce, and serve extra sauce on the side for dipping.

Nutrition

Keywords: For added flavor, let the chicken marinate overnight. Substitute chicken with tofu or shrimp for a different protein option. Adjust red pepper flakes based on your spice preference.
