Chicken Satay Skewers with Peanut Sauce

Ingredients:

Satay Chicken:	Peanut Sauce:
2 lbs. chicken breasts, boneless and skinless cut into 1-inch cubes	2 TBSP hoisin sauce (or dark soy sauce)
¼ cup coconut milk	2 TBSP peanut butter
2 TBSP soy sauce	1 TBSP red curry paste (optional)
1 TBSP fish sauce	½ TBSP fresh lime juice
1 TBSP yellow curry powder	½ TBSP honey (or white sugar)
1 TBSP brown sugar	¼ cup boiling water
1 TBSP garlic, minced	1 TBSP roasted peanuts, chopped
1 TBSP ginger, freshly grated
1 TBSP vegetable oil

Directions:

Marinate the chicken: Place cubed chicken into a zip-loc bag. Add in all the marinade ingredients. Stir well to combine. Press the air out of the bag and seal tightly. Press the marinade around the cubed chicken to coat. Place in the refrigerator and marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
Make the peanut sauce: Combine all the ingredients (hoisin sauce, peanut butter, red curry paste (optional), lime juice, honey and water). Stir well with a spoon to mix until the mixture is smooth and uniform. Sprinkle chopped roasted peanuts on top.
Grill the chicken satay skewers: Thread the chicken onto skewers (about 4 to 5 pieces per skewer). Grill the chicken skewers for 8-10 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165 F and grill marks are clearly visible.

Serve with peanut sauce and lime wedges. Sprinkle roasted peanuts and chopped parsley on top.
