Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Chicken breast
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 cup Peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 2 tbsp Lime juice
- 2 pcs Garlic clove
- 1 tbsp Brown sugar
- 1 tsp Ground ginger
- 0.5 tsp Chili flakes (optional)
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro (for garnish)
Instructions
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and place them in a bowl.
Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce to the chicken and mix well. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes while you prepare the sauce.
In a saucepan, combine the peanut butter, coconut milk, lime juice, minced garlic, brown sugar, ground ginger, remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and chili flakes (if using).
Stir the sauce mixture over medium heat until smooth and slightly thickened, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the marinated chicken pieces to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and golden brown, about 6-8 minutes.
Lower the heat to medium and pour the prepared satay sauce over the chicken. Stir to coat the chicken pieces evenly in the sauce and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
Serve hot with steamed jasmine rice or noodles for a complete meal. Enjoy!
