Chicken Satay is one of my dishes, with that in mind I, ve rewritten this recipe so many times, practiced it, cooked it and didn’t want to put it on the blog until I perfected it. You can have this dish two different ways. On skiers or with the added chicken breast. The kids prefer it on skewers (put food on a stick and the kids here will always eat it ) I prefer it simply with the added chicken breast. You can chuck in some pineapple, green pepper, mushrooms if you want to up the veggie intake, but to be honest I like it as it is and serve stirred fried veg on the side. Enjoy
Ingredients
- tablespoon of sesame oil
- 4 chicken breasts
- 1 onion
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1-centimeter cube of fresh ginger grated
- 2 tablespoons of mild curry powder (or hot if you like it spicy)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder (depending on how hot your family like it)
- 3 tablespoons crunchy peanut butter
- 150 MLS water
- 1 tablespoon of pineapple chunks (optional)
- garnish with coriander
Method
(serves 4)
Preheat oven to 180C , 160C fan, gas mark 4
If you skewering the chicken you can get the kids to do it (just chop the chicken for them) skier chicken and cook in the oven for around 25 mins turning once .. check the sides near the skiers before serving to see if it’s 
completely cooked.
if you just fancy a chicken satay (no skewers) grab a baking tray for your chicken, cover the chicken and tray with tin foil and bake in the oven for 25 mins…
now for the sauce …….
heat sesame oil a wok and add chopped onion, fry until it’s soft
chuck in your crushed garlic clove and grated ginger and fry for a minute,
stir in the curry powder and let it cook for another minute (the smell will be amazing) water it down with the soy sauce.
finally, mix in sweet chili sauce, chili powder, peanut butter and stir
add the water to loosen the whole recipe… blend well with a stick hand blender
finally, add to cooked chicken chunks or cooked chicken skiers… chuck in some pineapple if you fancy
Serve with Rice x
