MARINATED CHICKEN KEBABS WITH A PEANUT SATAY SAUCE
I have been making this recipe for years and every time I make it I get rave reviews. It really is nothing special, I think, it is just that, the flavors all come together so well and the peanut sauce is so yummy. I make my sauce with smooth peanut butter as I am not a fan of crunchy, but I think this would be fine if you prefer to have the peanut chunks in the sauce.

- Grill or BBQ skewers turning a couple of times and basting with the reserved marinade. Until cooked about 15-20 minutes.
- I usually use red and yellow peppers as well but as I was serving these over a Thai-style salad that already had peppers in it, I chose to omit them.
- Sauce.
- I prefer to make this ahead of time and just re-heat as this allows for the flavors to really come out.
- Heat oil in a pan, add onions and garlic and cook to soften onion.
- Add remaining ingredients and stir to combine, leave on a low heat, stirring occasionally until sauce thickens. Sauce can be made a day ahead and just re-heated.

Steps:
- For the chicken: Cut the chicken tenders into 2-inch pieces and put in a large container. Whisk together the yogurt, curry powder, hot sauce, garlic, shallot, ginger and some salt in a small bowl. Pour over the chicken, cover and marinate, refrigerated, for 1 to 2 hours.

CHICKEN SKEWERS WITH PEANUT SAUCE
That peanut butter is relegated to the sandwich while sesame butter (tahini) is seen as an exotic food item is one of the wonderfully preposterous anomalies of American cooking. In the rest of the world, especially Asia, peanuts are special, used not only as a garnish but as a main ingredient in sauces. One such sauce incorporates coconut milk and classic Thai seasonings: curry paste or powder, nam pla, lime and cilantro. The coconut milk and peanuts make the mixture too powerful-tasting for most fish and too heavy for most meat. It is perfect, however, when teamed with chicken on the grill, especially boneless thighs.

Steps:
- Cut the chicken lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices, thread the slices lengthwise onto the skewers, and season them with salt and pepper.
- Make the marinade:
- In a blender blend together the coconut, the gingerroot, the curry powder, the lime juice, and the hot water until the mixture is smooth, strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on the solids, and let the marinade cool. The marinade may be made 2 days in advance and kept covered and chilled.
- In a large shallow dish pour the marinade over the chicken, coating the chicken well, and let the chicken marinate, covered and chilled, for at least 1 hour and up to 3 hours. (Do not let the chicken marinate longer or the meat will break down.)
- Make the dipping sauce.
- Grill the chicken with the marinade clinging to it on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals for 1 1/2 minutes on each side, or until it is cooked through, and serve the satés with the dipping sauce.
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs work well for kabobs. Cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces.
- Marinate the chicken. Marinating the chicken in a flavorful mixture of olive oil, spices, and herbs will help to tenderize and infuse it with flavor.
- Use a variety of vegetables. Vegetables such as bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, and zucchini are all good choices for kabobs. Cut the vegetables into 1-inch pieces.
- Skewer the chicken and vegetables. Alternate pieces of chicken and vegetables on the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece.
- Grill the kabobs. Grill the kabobs over medium heat for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Make the peanut sauce. While the kabobs are grilling, make the peanut sauce by combining peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, and ginger in a blender or food processor.
- Serve the kabobs with the peanut sauce. Serve the kabobs hot off the grill with the peanut sauce for dipping.
Conclusion:
Chicken kabobs with peanut sauce are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for summer grilling. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the peanut sauce is creamy and tangy. This dish is sure to please everyone at your next cookout.
