Servings: 4
Ingredients
- Wooden skewers
- 10-12, soaked in water for 30 minutes
- Lime
- juice of 1 lime
- Red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon, grated
- Garlic
- 3 cloves, minced
- Honey
- 2 tablespoons
- Peanut butter
- 1/2 cup
- Soy sauce
- 1/4 cup
- Chicken breasts
- 2, cut into 1-inch pieces
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, peanut butter, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, red pepper flakes, and lime juice until the mixture is smooth and well combined. This is your flavorful Thai peanut marinade.
- Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and toss thoroughly to ensure each piece is well coated with the marinade. Cover the bowl and allow the chicken to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. For a deeper flavor, you can marinate the chicken for up to 24 hours.
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- After marinating, thread the chicken pieces onto the soaked skewers. Discard the remaining marinade.
- Grill the skewers for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the edges have a slightly charred appearance. Ensure that the chicken is no longer pink inside.
- Serve your sizzling Thai peanut chicken skewers with extra peanut sauce on the side for dipping. You can garnish with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime for an added fresh and tangy kick.
