This is incredibly easy to make and a delicious addition to any Asian-themed meal! I got this recipe from my Dad; I think he got it from a LCBO magazine about 10 years ago. The preparation time includes marinating time. The peanut lime dipping sauce can be made up to 3 days ahead, but grill the satays just before serving. You can also substitute beef, chicken or shrimp, for the pork, with equally delicious results! Ingredients:
1 small onion, chopped |
1 inch gingerroot, chopped |
2 garlic cloves, chopped |
1 teaspoon chili sauce (sambal oelek works well) or 1 dried red chili |
1 lime, juice and zest of, grated |
2 tablespoons soy sauce |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
1 tablespoon peanut oil or 1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
12 ounces pork tenderloin |
1/4 cup peanut butter (either chunky or smooth) |
1/4 cup soy sauce |
1/4 cup lime juice |
1 tablespoon rice vinegar |
3 tablespoons coriander, chopped (cilantro) |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
1/2 teaspoon chili sauce (sambal oelek) or 1/4 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes |
Directions:
1. Combine all marinade ingredients in food processor or blender and puree. Set aside.
2. Cut pork into 6-inch lengths and slice each length into 1/2-inch long strips. Thread pork strips onto bamboo skewers.
3. Place skewers into 9x13-inch pan (or a zipper bag) and pour marinade over all. Turn skewers to ensure they are evenly coated. Cover, refrigerate and marinate for 2 to 3 hours.
4. Grill pork for 2 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
5. Peanut Lime Sauce:.
6. Put peanut butter in a medium size bowl. Slowly whisk in remaining ingredients. The peanut butter will seize after each liquid addition, but keep whisking and it will smooth out.
