EASY CHICKEN SATAY RECIPE

Steps:

• Add everything except for the chicken to a food processor or a blender and process or blend until smooth. Set aside.
• Prepare the chicken removing and skin or bones and cut into small ½" pieces and add to a large bowl.
• Add the marinade onto the chicken and optionally season with salt and pepper. Mix everything together completely. Cover and keep in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or up to 24 hours.
• When you are ready to cook, preheat the oven to high heat (450° to 550°) and soak some wooden skewers in water for 20 minutes so they do not catch on fire while grilling.
• Next, skewer the chicken leaving about 3" at the bottom of the skewer to make it easy to hold and eat. I got 12 8" skewers.
• Place the chicken on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until browned and cooked throughout.
• Optionally garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve with peanut sauce.
