Ingredients
220 g Chicken breast fillets, sliced into finger-size pieces
2 tbsp Soy sauce
2 tbsp Sweet chilli sauce
4 tbsp Peanut butter
4 tbsp Coconut milk
to taste Fresh coriander leaves, for garnish
to taste Chopped roasted peanuts, for garnish
Directions
Prepare the chicken by cutting any larger fillets into uniform finger-size pieces, about 2-3 inches long. In a bowl, combine the sliced chicken with the soy sauce and sweet chilli sauce, tossing gently to coat evenly.
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto metal or wooden skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes first), leaving a small gap between pieces. Arrange the skewers on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Cover the tray tightly with cling film and place in the freezer. Freeze for at least 2 hours, or prepare ahead and freeze overnight.
When ready to cook, remove the skewers from the freezer and thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan / gas mark 6).
Place the thawed skewers directly on the prepared baking tray and roast for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through with no pink inside and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the chicken cooks, prepare the satay dip by whisking together the peanut butter and coconut milk in a small bowl until smooth and creamy.
Transfer the cooked skewers to a serving plate. Sprinkle with fresh coriander leaves and chopped roasted peanuts. Serve warm with the satay dip on the side.
Comments
The stated 1470-minute total time is nonsensical (over 24 hours); realistic prep and cook time is closer to 45 minutes. All core ingredients—chicken, soy sauce, peanut butter, coconut milk, peanuts—are available at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Walmart, or ALDI; sweet chilli sauce and coriander may require a quick stop at Publix or an Asian grocer if your local Food Lion doesn't stock them, a real cost for weeknight cooking. At roughly $2 to $2.50 per serving, the dish is reasonable for a family meal. The satay dip reheats well, and the skewers suit casual family dinners, though the recipe will need close attention during grilling and sauce assembly.
