GRILLED INDONESIAN CHICKEN SATAY
This recipe was given to me by my neighbour who is one of the nicest people I know. She is originally from Indonesia and moved to Canada a few years ago. I am guessing at serving sizes, and cooking times so please adjust amounts to what you think you need. I am also guessing at the amount of oil added to the basting sauce as I was told just to add a little oil to make it easier to baste with. You may need more basting sauce depending on how much you put on while cooking and I would double or triple the sauce if you have more than a pound of meat.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Use a whole chicken or chicken parts with skin and bones. This will help keep the chicken moist and flavorful during grilling.
- Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a flavorful mixture of herbs, spices, and liquids will help tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
- Preheat the grill: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat before adding the chicken. This will help prevent the chicken from sticking to the grill.
- Grill the chicken over indirect heat: Once the grill is preheated, move the chicken to one side of the grill and turn off the burners on that side. This will create a cooler zone for the chicken to cook slowly and evenly.
- Cook the chicken to the right temperature: The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius) before it is safe to eat. Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature of the chicken.
- Let the chicken rest before serving: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.
Conclusion:
Indonesian grilled chicken is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make sure that your grilled chicken is cooked perfectly every time. Serve with your favorite sides, such as rice, vegetables, or potatoes, and enjoy!
