Chicken sates with peanut sauce

[Cubfan]

Quick snack last night...

Use chicken 'tenders' or tenderloins, if not use breasts but cut into strips...

The sauce - mix and heat. I couldn't find my usual 'spicy peanut' one but I added some heat....

Flattened out - not really necessary with the tenders would be with the breasts...

skewer...

Grill over low-med heat. They are thin and delicate, no need to kill 'em.

Garnish with some cilantro... (should soak the wood skewers longer than I did)

Thanks for the idea. I'm going to do those for appetizers this weekend when the neighbors come over! Might try marinating the chicken for a little extra kick. Thinking something like lemongrass and lime juice would go nicely.

that sounds good! Yeah I dumped some peanut sauce on them for about an hour as a marinade, doubt it did much though. The lime would be great.

This was an uninspiring peanut sauce mix - too bland. The same brand offers a "Spicy peanut sauce" packet but my new store didn't have it. So I kicked it up with some green curry paste. It added some nice zip.

Try cashew butter, it is great and has a different taste. I mix in some red pepper flakes with mine and it is goood.
