Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of meat: Flank steak, skirt steak, and chicken thighs or breasts are all great options for satay. For a more tender satay, use a cut of meat with less fat, such as tenderloin or strip steak.
  • Marinate the meat for at least 30 minutes: This will help to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor. The longer you marinate the meat, the more flavorful it will be.
  • Use a variety of spices in your marinade: Common spices used in satay marinades include cumin, coriander, turmeric, and chili powder. You can also add other spices that you like, such as ginger, garlic, or lemongrass.
  • Don't overcook the satay: Satay should be cooked quickly over high heat. Overcooking will make the meat tough and dry.
  • Serve the satay with a peanut sauce: Peanut sauce is the traditional accompaniment to satay. You can make your own peanut sauce or buy it pre-made.
