Chicken Satay Skewers With Cucumber Yogurt Sauce image

This is great with Peanut Noodle Salad. It's refreshing and a nice change of pace from your average grilled chicken. If you don't have bamboo skewers, don't worry... I don't use them half the time either. Just grill chicken and enjoy.

I would recommend marinating the chicken for longer than the recipe suggests. It really helps to infuse the chicken with flavor.
