Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, curry powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
-
Add the chicken strips to the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
-
If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning while grilling.
-
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, brush it lightly with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
-
Thread the marinated chicken strips onto the skewers, dividing them evenly among the skewers.
-
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
-
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the peanut sauce.
-
In a small saucepan, combine peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and coconut milk.
-
Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened.
-
Remove from heat and set aside.
-
Once the chicken skewers are done grilling, transfer them to a serving plate.
-
Drizzle the peanut sauce over the chicken skewers or serve it on the side for dipping.
-
Garnish with crushed peanuts and chopped cilantro for an extra burst of flavor.
