Chicken Sate (Grilled Chicken with Spicey Peanut Sauce)

I love almost anything with peanuts and peanut butter in it, so this recipe is perfect. This recipe is great for a weekend BBQ, if you want to try something different.

2 boneless chicken breasts, skinned
wood skewers

Sate Sauce

1/2 c. roasted salted peanuts
1 onion, chopped
1/2 c. peanut butter (smooth)
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/3 c. mango chutney
1/2 c. oil
2 tsp. light soy sauce
1/4 c. lemon juice
1/2 tsp. chili powder

Early in day, soak skewers in water (for a few hours) to prevent burning during grilling.

Preheat grill to med. or oven to around 400F.

Blend or process peanuts until finely crushed, add onion, process 20 seconds. Add peanut butter, garlic, chutney, oil, soy sauce, lemon juice & chili powder until smooth.

Slice chicken into 1/4 inch thick, 1 inch wide strips (wide enough to be able to skewer with the bamboo). Thread the chicken onto the skewers.

Grill until chicken is done, brushing with sate sauce. Serve with rice and extra sauce on the side.

Enjoy,
Myrna
