Ingredients

• 500 grams Boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 200 ml Reduced-fat coconut milk
• 60 grams Natural peanut butter
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
• 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
• 2 teaspoons Curry powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 10 pieces Wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the reduced-fat coconut milk, natural peanut butter, soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, curry powder, ground coriander, crushed red pepper flakes, and salt. Mix until smooth to form the marinade.

Step 3

Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.

Step 4

Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.

Step 5

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat.

Step 6

Thread marinated chicken cubes onto the soaked skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.

Step 7

Place skewers on the preheated grill and cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred on the edges.

Step 8

Remove from the grill and let rest for a couple of minutes before serving.

Step 9

Serve the low-fat satay chicken skewers with extra lime wedges, if desired, and enjoy!
