Chicken Satay with Spicy Peanut Sauce

As with most thai food, this is a perfect combination of spicy, sweet, salty and tangy.

Ingredients:

1 lb chicken breast, sliced into thin strips
1/4 cup coconut milk
2 stalks lemongrass, sliced, white parts only
1 tsp ginger garlic paste
1/2 tsp curry powder
2 tbsp fish sauce
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
Juice of 1 lime

Peanut sauce:

4 tbsp creamy peanut butter
Juice of 1 lime
3-4 tbsp coconut milk
2 tbsp fish sauce
1 Tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp sambal or Sriracha

For the marinade, throw all the ingredients in the first set (except the chicken) into the blender until smooth. Marinate chicken strips in this mixture for at least 2 hours. If using bamboo or wooden skewers, soak them in water first. Thread chicken onto skewers and grill. Alternatively you can broil or sear on a very hot pan.

Mix all the ingredients together for the peanut sauce. Dip and enjoy!
