Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup light coconut milk (save the extra for the peanut sauce!)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 lime (juice only)
2 tbs. liquid or coconut aminos (can use soy sauce)
2 tsp. turmeric powder
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (trimmed of fat)

¼ cup light coconut milk
1 tsp. brown sugar

2 tsp. liquid or coconut aminos (can use soy sauce)
lime wedges, sliced anaheim peppers, sliced bell peppers, cauliflower or regular rice

Steps:

  • Place kebab skewers (soak 10) onto a cooking sheet and cover with water. Place a pot lid or something weighted onto skewers so they stay covered and let soak until ready to skew.
  • Combine the first five ingredients in a large bowl or tupperware. Slice chicken breasts into 1" pieces (slice lengthwise, then dice), season lightly with salt and pepper and place into bowl, covering all pieces.Place bowl into refrigerator for at least 10 minutes, preferably 20-30.
  • Combine all ingredients for the peanut sauce and taste for seasoning.
  • Heat outdoor grill to 400 degrees or start to warm a grill pan over medium heat.
  • After chicken has marinated, skew 6-7 chicken pieces onto skewers leaving room on one end. Thread the chicken pieces twice through the skewer so they're less likely to fall from stick.
  • On outdoor grill, cook kebabs for about 5 minutes per side. On indoor grill pan, spray with cooking spray (not needed if you have a nonstick pan) and cook for the same time or until chicken is no longer pink.
  • Serve on their own or over rice! Top with peanut sauce and place more on the table for dipping. Let chicken rest for a few minutes before sliding off of kebabs!

GRILLED COCONUT-LIME CHICKEN WITH PEANUT SAUCE (CHICKEN SATAY)



GRILLED COCONUT-LIME CHICKEN WITH PEANUT SAUCE (CHICKEN SATAY) image

Categories     Chicken     Appetizer     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Backyard BBQ     Kosher for Passover

Yield 18 skewers

Number Of Ingredients 43

8-10 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken thigh meat
1/2 bunch cilantro chopped, for garnish
Marinade:
1 14 ounce can coconut milk
1/3 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons freshly grated ginger
4 minced garlic cloves
1 tablespoon sriracha (thai chilli sauce) could also use sambal oelek/ulek
1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped
zest and juice of 2 limes
2 tablespoons sesame seed oil
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons of curry spice mix, recipe below
salt to taste, if needed
Peanut Sauce:
1 1/2 cups crunchy all-natural peanut butter (nothing in the ingredients but peanuts and salt) or 2 cups roasted peanuts, crushed
zest and juice of 4 limes, plus more juice if needed
2-3 tablespoons freshly grated ginger
1/2+ cup dark soy sauce
1/3 cup brown sugar
3 finely minced garlic cloves
sriracha/sambal oelek to taste (I like mine quite spicy)
2-3 teaspoons sesame oil
2 teaspoons curry spice mix, recipe below
coconut milk as needed until desired consistency
Curry spice mix:
makes about 1/4 cup
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons coriander seeds
2 teaspoons fenugreek seeds
3 dried bay leaves
1/2 teaspoons celery seeds
1 teaspoons ground turmeric
Garam Masala:
makes about 1/3 cup
8-12 green cardamom pods (or 1 1/2-2 teaspoons ground cardamom)
1 tablespoon cloves
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
25g/1 oz coriander seeds
25g/1 oz cumin seeds
4 short cinnamon sticks
1/4 pod whole nutmeg (or 3/4 t ground)
3 star anise pods

Steps:

  • Marinate the meat pieces for 1-2 days in the fridge. I like to use all thigh meat (because it's juicier and more flavourful) that has been boned and skinned so it's really easy to just put it right into the marinade with no prep. Once ready to cook, preheat your grill. Once hot, scrape off any crud, and oil well. Remove each thigh and cut in half lengthwise. Skewer as many strips you can fit on your skewers (I did 3). Grill until just done on medium-high heat. During the last couple minutes of grilling, sprinkle the chicken with just a little bit of garam masala (recipe below) or the curry spice mixture if you prefer. Once all the chicken is done, place on a large platter, and sprinkle with the chopped cilantro. Serve with the peanut sauce to dip. Peanut sauce: You can make this a few days in advance, or while the chicken is grilling. Mix all ingredients together with a fork and then a whisk until well blended. The liquids are in variable measure because depending on what kind of peanut butter you use, how oily it is, and/or whether you grind your peanuts freshly, the amount you'll need to add in will change. If using peanuts instead of peanut butter, blend 3/4 of your peanuts in a food processor until it turns to peanut butter. Add the remainder of the crushed peanuts, and pulse a few times to mix them in, but retain the crunchy texture. Also depending on how limey and spicy you want it, change the amounts of lime juice and sriracha accordingly. For the spices: Toast the whole spices in a small, DRY sauté pan over low heat until fragrant and warm, you should be able to just smell the spices, but be very careful not to burn them. Grind them in a coffee grinder you dedicate solely to grinding spices. Add in any pre-ground spices and grind to mix in.
