Clean the button mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Trim the stems if necessary. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine coconut milk, peanut butter, low sodium soy sauce, and fresh lime juice.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves and ginger, then add them to the bowl.
Stir in brown sugar, ground cumin, ground coriander, and chili powder until the marinade is well blended.
Add the mushrooms to the marinade and toss to ensure all the mushrooms are evenly coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Soak the wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes to prevent them from burning.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and lightly brush it with olive oil.
Thread the marinated mushrooms onto the soaked skewers.
Grill the mushrooms for about 7 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and have grill marks.
Transfer the satay mushrooms to a serving platter and garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
