Orange Marinated Chicken Satay With Peanut Sauce Recipes

CHICKEN SATAY WITH PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 cup coconut milk, 2 teaspoons curry powder, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon fish sauce, and granulated garlic in a bowl; add chicken pieces and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• Thread marinated chicken pieces onto skewers.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken skewers in hot oil until browned and no longer pink in the center, 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
• Bring 3/4 cup coconut milk to a simmer in small saucepan or skillet over medium heat. Stir 1 tablespoon curry powder into the coconut milk and simmer for 4 minutes. Add chicken broth, peanut butter, 1 tablespoon sugar, lime juice, and 1 tablespoon fish sauce; simmer for 1 minute. Serve dipping sauce with chicken skewers.

ORANGE-MARINATED CHICKEN SATAY WITH PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• To marinate the chicken: Whisk all of the marinade ingredients together in a medium bowl. Put the chicken in a 1-gallon self-sealing plastic bag. Pour in the marinade, seal the bag, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 8 hours.
• To make the peanut sauce: Combine all the ingredients in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking almost constantly, until simmering, smooth, and thickened. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
• Prepare an outdoor grill for direct cooking over medium heat (350 degrees F to 450 degrees F). Alternatively, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and heat a grill pan over high heat.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade. Thread each chicken strip on a skewer. Place the meaty parts of the skewers over direct medium heat with the skewer handles facing the cooler part of the grill; slip a folded strip of aluminum foil under the handles (see Cook's Note). Sprinkle with salt. Grill, with the lid closed, turning once, until browned and the chicken shows no sign of pink when pierced with the tip of a small knife, about 6 minutes. Alternatively, spray the grill pan with nonstick cooking spray. Add the skewers and cook until grill marks appear on the chicken, about 1 minute per side. Transfer the skewers to a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet and bake until the chicken is cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the satays to a platter.
• Pour the peanut sauce into a serving bowl. Serve the satays with the peanut sauce for dipping.

MARINATED CHICKEN KEBABS WITH A PEANUT SATAY SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine all the marinade ingredients together in a large bowl or storage container. Chop chicken into about 2cm cubed pieces, add to marinade and marinate for several hours or overnight.
• Soak skewers in water for about 30 minutes prior to using to prevent them from burning while cooking.
• Reserve marinade. Thread a piece of chicken followed by a mushroom, chicken, onion, chicken, mushroom, chicken, onion, chicken. Repeat with remaining chicken and vegetables.
• Grill or BBQ skewers turning a couple of times and basting with the reserved marinade. Until cooked about 15-20 minutes.
• I usually use red and yellow peppers as well but as I was serving these over a Thai-style salad that already had peppers in it, I chose to omit them.
• Sauce.
• I prefer to make this ahead of time and just re-heat as this allows for the flavors to really come out.
• Heat oil in a pan, add onions and garlic and cook to soften onion.
• Add remaining ingredients and stir to combine, leave on a low heat, stirring occasionally until sauce thickens. Sauce can be made a day ahead and just re-heated.
