When I was small, mom would make chicken satay with peanut sauce for company. It was only for special occasions, but it was one of my favorite dishes. I just started making it for my family and realized why it was only for company, IT'S HARD TO PREPARE THE CHICKEN. Slicing it into thin ribbons is tough work, especially in a small kitchen. But if I were to use chicken wings... Ingredients:
15 chicken wings, cut the tips off and save for broth, then cut at the knuckle (to produce wingettes and drummettes) or 3 chicken breasts, sliced into thin strips |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
2 tablespoons light soy sauce |
1 teaspoon salt |
4 tablespoons sesame oil |
1 tablespoon curry powder |
1 tablespoon ground turmeric |
8 tablespoons coconut milk |
3 tablespoons sugar |
2 tablespoons oil |
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped |
1 tablespoon curry powder (i use sing kung corp., madras curry powder) |
8 tablespoons coconut milk |
1 cup chicken stock (use about 3 wing tips boiled in a cup of water and a dash of salt) or 1 cup chicken broth (use about 3 wing tips boiled in a cup of water and a dash of salt) |
1 tablespoon sugar |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
4 tablespoons peanut butter |
4 tablespoons dried breadcrumbs |
Directions:
1. Cut or prepare the chicken; place aside.
2. Mix ingredients for the satay sauce. Place in a gallon size ziplock bag.
3. Add chicken into bag, and place into the fridge overnight.
4. If making satay, place the thinly sliced chicken on skewers (like if you were sewing the chicken on the skewer).
5. Use a long pan (like a 9x13 cake pan) in place of the ziplock bag, cover, and keep in fridge overnight.
6. Make the peanut sauce by mixing the stock, sugar, salt and lemon juice and setting aside.
7. Heat a pan with the oil.
8. Add garlic and cook till golden.
9. Add the curry powder and mix in well, cook for a couple of seconds.
10. Add the coconut milk, keep stirring and allow to cook for a second or two.
11. Stir in the stock mixture and cook for a minute or two.
12. Add peanut butter and bread crumbs, mix well and transfer to a dipping bowl.
13. Fire up the grill and cook chicken over hot coals.
14. After the chicken is cooked, eat chicken by dipping the skewed meat (or buffalo wings) into the peanut sauce.
15. Enjoy with sticky rice, and a cold brew.
