AUTHENTIC BALINESE INDONESIAN SATAY CHICKEN
This is amazing! I got this recipe from a lady I met on my honeymoon in Bali. It's Indonesian home cooking so it's more authentic than the Satay you could try in the restaurants. To make this dish quicker to prepare, you could use unsalted peanut butter instead of roasting and peeling the peanuts. Oh and if you don't like your food spicy, use only 1 chilie or omit them all together. Enjoy!

GRILLED INDONESIAN CHICKEN SATAY
This recipe was given to me by my neighbour who is one of the nicest people I know. She is originally from Indonesia and moved to Canada a few years ago. I am guessing at serving sizes, and cooking times so please adjust amounts to what you think you need. I am also guessing at the amount of oil added to the basting sauce as I was told just to add a little oil to make it easier to baste with. You may need more basting sauce depending on how much you put on while cooking and I would double or triple the sauce if you have more than a pound of meat.

SPICY INDONESIAN PORK SATAY (OR CHICKEN)
One teaspoon of dried red pepper flakes with give you a mild heat flavor for more spice then increase the pepper flakes. Plan ahead the pork needs to marinade 8-24 hours. Make certain to soak the wooden skewers a minimum of 30 minutes before threading and grilling. Serve with favorite dipping sauce or you can use whatever leftover marinade that you have after basting the satay as a dipping sauce if desired. Make certain to use only low-sodium soy sauce for this recipe, also if you are using peanuts in place of peanut butter they must be unsalted. The recipe may be doubled but divided into two separate recipes and the pork marinated in two separate bowls. This will work well on on an indoor grill or oven broiler heat.

Steps:
- Combine ingredients for marinade. Mix thoroughly with meat (better to have more marinade and have it soupy than have it be too dry). Cover and refrigerate for 3-12 hours. Thread meat on wooden skewers that have been soaked in water at least 1/2 hour. Grill 3-4 minutes on each side. Serve with cucumber salad and peanut sauce.

- Choose the right skewers: Bamboo skewers are traditional, but you can also use metal skewers. Just make sure they're long enough to hold all of your ingredients.
- Soak your skewers: This will help prevent them from burning on the grill.
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your satay will taste.
- Don't overcrowd the skewers: Leave some space between each piece of meat or vegetable so that they can cook evenly.
- Cook the satay over medium heat: This will help prevent them from burning.
- Baste the satay with sauce: This will help keep them moist and flavorful.
- Serve the satay with your favorite dipping sauce: Peanut sauce is a classic, but you can also try other sauces, such as kecap manis or sambal.
