Ingredients
-2 lbs Boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bite size pieces
______________
FOR THE MARINADE:
-4 tablespoons lime juice
-2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons cumin
4 teaspoons coriander
2 teaspoons tumeric
______________
FOR THE PEANUT SAUCE
-2 tablespoons vegetable oil
-1/3 cup onion, finely chopped-2 teaspoons chili powder
-5 tablespoons MARINADE-1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
-1/2 cup water
-1 cup creamy peanut butter (NOT natural or low fat)
-1 lime, cut into wedges, for garnish
Preperation
1) Combine all marinade ingredients and whisk until combined. Save 5 tablespoons of the marinade for the sauce and refridgerate until you are ready to make the sauce.
2) Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces and skewer. Pour remaining marinade ofer chicken to make sure they are coated thoroughly. (USE gloves, because tumeric will stain your hands) Marinate for 1 hour.
3) For the peanut sauce, heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Saute onions for 5-7 minutes. Add chili powder and the 5 tablespoons of marinade, brown sugar, and 1/2 cup water. Keep the pan over heat until very hot, almost bubbling. Remove from heat and add peanut butter, whisking in until smooth.
4) Preheat grill and cook skewered meat over medium high heat for 10-15 minutes.
5) Serve with peanut sauce, and limes. We also enjoy a romaine salad with cabbage. Really rice or pasta would even be good with it.
This recipe will make about 6-8 skewers. Enough for 4-5 people or leftovers, which is how we like it!
