Ingredients
- Chicken breasts: 1.5 lbs, cut into 1-inch cubes
- Soy sauce: 1/4 cup
- Peanut butter: 1/4 cup, smooth
- Honey: 2 tablespoons
- Lime juice: 1 tablespoon
- Garlic powder: 1 teaspoon
- Onion powder: 1 teaspoon
- Wooden skewers: 12
Instructions
- Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, peanut butter, honey, lime juice, garlic powder, and onion powder until well combined and smooth.
- Step 2: Add the chicken cubes to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours, allowing the chicken to absorb the flavors.
- Step 3: While the chicken marinates, soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning during grilling.
- Step 4: Preheat your grill to medium heat. Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto the soaked skewers.
- Step 5: Grill the chicken satay for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has a slight char. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Step 6: Remove from the grill and serve immediately. Enjoy with extra peanut sauce or a side of rice.
Notes
- Store leftover chicken satay in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- For best results, gently reheat the satay in a skillet over medium-low heat, adding a splash of water or broth to keep it moist.
- Serve this delectable satay alongside a fresh cucumber salad and coconut rice for a complete and satisfying meal.
- To prevent the peanut butter from clumping in the marinade, warm it slightly in the microwave before whisking it with the other ingredients.
