Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Natural peanut butter
- 0.5 cup Coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Tamari or soy sauce (low sodium)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon Chili paste or sambal oelek
- 1 tablespoon Erythritol or any low-carb sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.25 cup Water
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the natural peanut butter and coconut milk over medium heat. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and well integrated.
Add tamari or low sodium soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, and chili paste to the peanut butter and coconut milk mixture. Stir well to ensure all ingredients are mixed evenly.
Add the erythritol or your preferred low-carb sweetener, and sesame oil into the saucepan. Stir again, making sure the sweetener dissolves completely.
Pour in the water gradually and continue to stir until the sauce reaches your desired consistency. If you prefer a thinner sauce, add a bit more water.
Let the sauce simmer gently for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the sauce cool slightly before serving.
Transfer the satay sauce to a serving dish or an airtight container for storage. It can be served warm or at room temperature.
Enjoy your low carb satay sauce drizzled over grilled chicken, beef skewers, or as a flavorful dip for fresh vegetables.
