Directions

1.
Marinate the Chicken
Start by cutting the chicken breasts into long, thin strips. In a bowl, mix together coconut milk, curry powder, sesame oil, and salt to create your marinade. Add the chicken strips to the marinade, ensuring they're fully coated. Let them marinate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
While your chicken is marinating, prepare the peanut sauce. In a separate bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, sweet chilli sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, coconut milk, and sriracha. Whisk together until you achieve a smooth consistency.

Serve!
After the chicken has marinated, thread each strip onto a skewer. Preheat your grill or broiler. Grill the chicken skewers, turning them occasionally, until they're cooked through and have developed a nice char on the outside. This should take about 8-10 minutes. To serve, drizzle the peanut sauce over the cooked chicken skewers, or use it as a dip on the side. Garnish with crushed peanuts and chilli for added texture.

Notes
The longer you marinate the chicken, the more flavorful it will be. Overnight marinating is ideal, but if you're in a hurry, even 30 minutes can make a difference.
If using wooden skewers, remember to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before threading the chicken. This will prevent them from burning while grilling.
Be careful not to overcook the chicken. Thin slices of chicken can cook quickly and may become dry if overcooked.
The peanut sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge. It also doubles as a great salad dressing or dip for veggies.
If you don't have coconut milk, you can use Greek yogurt as a substitute in the marinade. For the sauce, you can use regular milk, but the flavor won't be as rich.
Leftover Chicken Satay can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. The peanut sauce will last up to a week in the fridge.
