  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the chicken, be sure to cook it in batches so that it doesn't steam instead of sear.
  • Simmer the satay sauce: Let the satay sauce simmer for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Serve with a variety of sides: Almond coconut chicken satay is delicious served with jasmine rice, noodles, or a salad.
