Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Plant-based chicken pieces
- 200 milliliters Coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons Ginger, minced
- 100 grams Peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 10 Wooden skewers, soaked in water
Instructions
Start by preparing the marinade. In a large bowl, combine coconut milk, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, brown sugar, turmeric powder, cumin powder, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Mix well to combine.
Add the plant-based chicken pieces to the marinade, making sure they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
While the chicken pieces are marinating, prepare the peanut dipping sauce. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the peanut butter, remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce, lime juice, and chili powder. Stir until smooth and heated through. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the marinating is complete, preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated plant-based chicken pieces onto the wooden skewers.
Grill the skewers for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are slightly charred and heated through.
Serve the vegan chicken satay skewers warm with the prepared peanut dipping sauce on the side.
