These saté chicken skewers are the partner recipe to the Asian Sweet and Sour Cucumber Salad I posted last week. The combination of flavors lights up your mouth, and the creamy ‘peanut’ sauce takes this dish right over the top. In fact I almost made a recipe out of just the ‘peanut’ sauce because it’s both easy and versatile, along with being incredibly addictive! There’s a little quotation mark around ‘peanut’ sauce because there’s no actual peanuts involved in this recipe. I love making peanut sauces with cashew butter for anyone who can’t have peanut products. But you can easily make this with peanut butter as well for a more traditional version.
Time saving tip: marinate and grill the chicken thighs whole instead of cutting them into strips to make skewers.
This meal is both light and refreshing while at the same time being incredibly comforting. I love dishes that combine those two concepts because while I crave fresh flavors in the depths of winter, it’s so chilly out that I need that comforting aspect as well! 4.8 from 6 reviews
