 tags (edit): @Vogel @Try Soon! Main Dish  

 

A delicious party snack or main meal. Vegetarians can use cubes of tofu instead of chicken. If possible, use wooden satay sticks but remember to soak them in cold water before you start to prevent them burning.

Ingredients

Satay
9 ounce Chicken Breasts Skinless Diced
6 small Bamboo Satay Or Small Metal Skewers
3 Lettuce Leaves 3 To 4
Marinade
4 Spring Onions
2 clove Garlic 1" Pieces
1 teaspoon Coriander Ground
1 teaspoon Cumin Ground
2 tablespoon Light Soy Sauce
1 tablespoon Sunflower Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Sugar
Peanut Sauce
2 tablespoon Peanut Butter
6 tablespoon Water
2 teaspoon Soy Sauce
1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Sugar


 

Instructions
On a chopping board, cut the chicken breasts or tofu into bite size cubes, about 2 cm square. Trim the onions and cut into small pieces. Peel the ginger and grate on the small holes of the grater. Crush in the garlic. Add the rest of the marinade ingredients and mix in the chicken or tofu. Cover and leave in the fridge for 1 hour. Meanwhile, make the sauce. Put the peanut butter, water, soy sauce, sugar, and lemon juice into a small saucepan. Bring to the boil, stirring until smooth. Simmer for 2 minutes and pour into a small serving bowl to cool. Roll the lettuce all together and cut into shreds with a sharp knife. Put it on to a serving plate and leave to one side. Drain the wooden satay sticks if you are using them and thread about 6 pieces of chicken or tofu onto each one. Preheat a grill until hot, put the satays under, then turn down to a moderate heat. Cook for 5 minutes on each side. Carefully place the satays on the plate lined with shredded lettuce and serve with the sauce.
