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

Directions

Step 1

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.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

Once the marinating is complete, preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Thread the marinated plant-based chicken pieces onto the wooden skewers.

Step 6

Grill the skewers for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are slightly charred and heated through.

Step 7

Serve the vegan chicken satay skewers warm with the prepared peanut dipping sauce on the side.
