QUICK AND EASY CHICKEN SATAY
This is so simple and quick to put together, it is a great recipe to make after work as it can be on the table in about 30 Min's. The spiciness of the dish will depend on the brand of satay sauce you buy, mine is a medium spice and I add extra chili flakes as well, so you can make this as mild or as spicy as you like to suit personal preference. I serve this dish over basmati rice but serve with whatever you want if you do not make the rice it would be on the table even quicker.

Steps:
- In a food processor, blend the peanut butter, coconut milk, spring onions, garlic, ginger, chilies, curry powder, cumin, turmeric, salt, soy sauce, and lime juice into a smooth paste; this should make about 2 cups. Reserve half of the marinade and pour the other half over the chicken thighs. Mix and chill for 2 hours or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 425˚F (220˚C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Skewer the marinated chicken onto bamboo skewers, then arrange the skewers so their ends rest on the edges of the baking tray, allowing the chicken to be suspended. Bake the chicken skewers for 15-20 minutes, until slightly dark brown on the edges and cooked through.
- With no oil in the pan, toast the chopped peanuts on low to medium heat, stirring constantly until the peanuts turn golden brown, 2-3 minutes. Add in the reserved marinade and the coconut milk. Stir and cook until thick and very aromatic, 5-10 minutes.
- Serve the chicken skewers with the sauce on the side.
- Enjoy!

A SIMPLE CHICKEN SATAY
"Tourist Thai", but very tasty - and not a skewer in sight! The prep time includes the minutes the chicken has spent swimming in the marinade. I found this in a 1980's Harrowsmith Cookbook, and do it on occasion with chicken breasts.

Steps:
- KIDS the writing in bold is for you. GROWN-UPS the rest is for you. Make a yummy marinade. Peel the ginger and help them to finely grate it and tip it into a bowl. Repeat with the garlic and lime zest. Halve the lime and get your child to juice it, then mix it in a bowl with the honey, soy, curry powder and peanut butter. Get them to give it a good mix, adding a small splash of water if it's too stiff, then help them spoon two-thirds of the mix into a small pan. Set aside for Step 4.
- Now for some chicken bashing! Put the chicken in the sandwich bag, one breast at a time, getting your child to flatten each one with a rolling pin or a meat mallet - this isn't essential, but they like doing it.
- Mix the chicken with the marinade you made. Cut the chicken into strips, tip it into the remaining third of the peanut-butter mix, then get your child to stir well. Cover with cling film and chill until required. This can be done up to 3 hrs ahead.
- Cook your tasty sauce. While the chicken is marinating, pour the coconut milk into the pan and get your child to stir together with the peanut butter mix. The sauce needs to be heated gently and stirred - suitable for confident seven- or eight-year olds, under strict adult supervision.
- 'Sew' the chicken onto the skewers. The chicken needs to be threaded into 'S' shapes onto the skewers. Get your child to thread the skewers away from themselves, being careful of the sharp points. Younger ones might find this a little fiddly, so they could just push on small chunks.
- Paint the tray with oil and cook the chicken. Heat the grill to high and get your child to brush a baking tray with oil. They can then line up the skewers on the tray. Grill the skewers for about 10 mins, turning occasionally, until lightly charred.
- Make cucumber ribbons with a peeler. Using a swivel-blade peeler, get your child to peel the cucumber into a bowl, then carry on peeling the cucumber flesh into ribbons until they get to the seeds. Repeat with each side of the cucumber.
- Mix a dressing for the cucumber. Get your child to mix the vinegar and sugar until the sugar dissolves - explain what dissolves means. Add the sweet chilli, if using, then pour over the cucumber. Add coriander if your child likes it, or serve on the side for the grown-ups. To serve, put the skewers on a platter, the sauce and salad in bowls, and serve with rice and lime wedges on the side.

Steps:
- Put 30 to 36 wooden skewers in bowl or other container and add cold water to cover. Let soak one hour or longer.
- Preheat charcoal grill or kitchen broiler.
- Cut chicken meat into 1/2-inch cubes. There should be about 2 1/2 cups. Put cubes in a bowl.
- Sprinkle chicken with coriander, cumin, fennel, pepper and turmeric. Set aside.
- Put pieces of fresh lemon grass or lemon grass powder, shallots, garlic and water in the container of an electric blender and blend thoroughly.
- Pour and scrape this mixture over the chicken and mix together with the fingers. Add sugar, salt and Worcestershire sauce and blend. Set aside for one hour.
- Add one tablespoon of the oil and blend well.
- Drain skewers and thread 4 to 6 pieces of chicken, arranging them quite close together, on each skewer.
- Blend remaining 2 tablespoons oil and coconut cream or milk.
- Arrange skewered chicken on charcoal grill or under broiler. Cook 4 to 6 minutes, depending on whether the chicken is to be medium cooked or well done. Turn skewers so that the pieces cook evenly. As chicken cooks, brush generously with oil-coconut oil mixture. Serve with satay sauce as a dip. Serve neatly trimmed pieces of onion and cucumber on the side as accompaniment.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for best results.
- Cut the chicken evenly: This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from becoming dry.
- Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes: This will help it absorb the flavors of the marinade and make it more tender.
- Use a hot grill or pan: This will help to sear the chicken and prevent it from sticking.
- Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: This will help to ensure that it is safe to eat.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite dipping sauce: Satay sauce, peanut sauce, or sweet and sour sauce are all popular choices.
Conclusion:
Chicken satay is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or snack. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a little planning and effort, you can easily create a delicious chicken satay dish that will impress your friends and family.
