Description

Juicy grilled chicken marinated in a coconut blend, served with a rich peanut sauce for a delicious Thai-inspired meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1 cup Coconut milk
  • 1/4 cup Soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup Brown sugar
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
  • 2 tablespoons Lime juice
  • Peanut sauce, for serving

Instructions

  1. Whisk the marinade: In a bowl, combine coconut milk, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until smooth.
  2. Marinate the chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Place the chicken in the marinade, ensuring every piece is coated. Let it marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Thread onto skewers: Take the marinated chicken pieces and carefully thread them onto soaked skewers.
  4. Preheat the grill: Set the grill to medium-high heat.
  5. Grill the skewers: Place the skewers on the grill and grill for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until fully cooked.
  6. Serve with peanut sauce: Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and serve with a generous drizzle of peanut sauce.

Notes

For richer flavor, marinate the chicken the night before. If using wooden skewers, soak them for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
