Try this simple recipe for a taste of south east Asian street food!
- Soak your wooden skewers in water, this stops them from burning when you come to cooking the chicken.
- In a mixing bowl, add the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, curry powder, ground cumin, ginger, garlic and the zest and juice of the limes.
- Beat it together until it is well combined, if it is too thick just add a splash of water.
- Spoon two thirds into a saucepan, then add the coconut milk and mix well. Set that aside whilst you get the chicken ready.
- Place each chicken breast into a sandwich bag and beat with a rolling pin to flatten it slightly. Try not to break it the chicken,.
- Slice the chicken lengthways to get long and thin strips.
- Place the chicken into the mixing bowl with the remaining third of the marinade. Mix well until it is all coated.
- Thread the chicken strips onto the skewers into 'S' shapes. Add 2-3 strips per skewer.
- Heat up some oil in a heavy based griddle pan, cook the chicken skewers over a medium-high heat for a few minutes either side until they are browned nicely.
- If you are worried about them cooking all the way through, you can cook them in the pan to get some colour, then transfer them to the oven for 5-10 minutes.
- To prepare the sauce, heat it gently until it starts to simmer. Sprinkle in some chopped coriander and mix well.
- Garnish the chicken satay with chopped peanuts, sliced chilli and lime wedges.
- Serve with the peanut sauce.
