Tips:

  • To ensure the chicken is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the grill.

  • If you're short on time, you can use store-bought peanut sauce instead of making your own.
  • Serve the chicken satay with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet and sour sauce, hoisin sauce, or chili sauce.
