Directions
Start by soaking the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes. This prevents them from burning when you grill the kebabs.
To create the marinade, combine the soy sauce, honey, curry powder, garlic, onion, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Whisk until well combined.
Add in the chicken pieces to the bowl and thoroughly mix, ensuring each piece is well coated with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Marinating overnight allows flavors to penetrate more deeply, enriching the overall taste.
Time to prepare the peanut sauce. Heat the vegetable oil in a pan on medium heat. Add in the minced garlic and stir-fry until golden brown to unlock its potential aroma and flavor.
Add the peanut butter to the pan, continuously stirring until it melts. Stir in the soy sauce and honey, mixing well to combine. Your peanut sauce should be thick yet pourable at this point.
Preheat your grill to medium heat. Remove chicken from the marinade and thread onto the soaked skewers.
Grill the chicken kebabs for about 5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and nicely charred. Regularly turning the skewers ensures the chicken cooks evenly.
Serve these delectable Satay Chicken Kebabs with the velvety peanut sauce for a rich, exquisite explosion of flavors. Optional recommendations include rice, salad, or grilled veggies as accompaniments for a complete meal.
