Chicken Satay is not only one of the most delicious Thai recipes, it's also very easy to prepare.
Serves 2.
6 bamboo skewers
6 chicken tenderloins
2 tablespoons unsalted peanuts, dry roasted and coarsely chopped
Marinade:
2 tablespoons red curry paste
200 ml coconut cream
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
½ tablespoon coconut sugar
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
½ tablespoon soy sauce
½ tablespoon fish sauce
3 tablespoons tamarind juice
2 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
Mix the ingredients of the marinade then stir-in the chicken. Marinate at least 20 minutes.
There are two ways to cook the chicken:
Method 1. Remove the chicken from the marinade, assemble it on the skewers, then cook it over low heat, on a pre-oiled grill for about 5 minutes (2½ minutes on each side). In the meantime, cook the marinade over a low heat for 5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning. Stir in the peanuts and serve.
Method 2. This is the recommended method if you have had little time to marinate the chicken. Cook the chicken and the marinade together in a pan over a low heat for about 5 minutes. Then remove the chicken and assemble it on the skewers. Taste and adjust the seasoning of the sauce. Stir in the peanuts and serve.
