Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds chicken breasts or thighs
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk
  • 1/3–1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon chili paste
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 12–15 skewers

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, coconut milk, brown sugar, chili paste, lime juice, and spices. Set aside one-third of the mixture for later.
  2. Add sliced chicken to the remaining marinade and coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least six hours or overnight for maximum flavor.
  3. Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  4. Preheat your grill or oven to medium heat (350°F). Thread marinated chicken onto skewers.
  5. Grill each skewer for about 3-4 minutes per side until fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F).
  6. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine reserved marinade with coconut milk or water until heated through. Stir in peanut butter until creamy.
  7. Serve skewers warm with peanut sauce for dipping.
