The Best Chicken Satay with Bonus Peanut Sauce Recipe | Food Wishes

[Music]

Hello, this is Chef John from foodwishes.com with the best chicken saté.

That's right. It's come to my attention that I've never posted a video for this, which is shocking since this is one of my favorite things to eat. But anyway, I'm going to finally show you what I think is the best recipe and also the easiest recipe thanks in part to these first two ingredients, which would be some jarred ready to use red curry paste, plus a nice big spoon of curry powder.

And while we could add all the individual ingredients used to make

these, this is going to save us a lot of time and effort, but we'll still produce something extraordinary.

And then to that, we will add a little bit of salt, plus some sugar, both white and brown. And then we'll follow that with a touch of Asian fish sauce. And then we'll finish up the marinade ingredients with the star of the show, some real full fat coconut milk. And we will pour that in. And then take a whisk and mix this very thoroughly. And thanks to those first two ingredients in just a couple minutes. This is ready to start tossing chunks of chicken into.

So feel free to spend all that extra time toasting and grinding spices and pounding chilies and garlic and

ginger in a mortar and pestle, which of course would be great, but I'll take something very close that we can just do in a couple minutes. And then as far as how to prep the aforementioned chicken chunks, we'll take some boneless skinless chicken thighs, which as you know have two sides, a smaller, flatter side and a bigger, fatter side. And what I like to do is cut between those two pieces in the thinnest point. And then cut the smaller side in half to make two chunks.
