CHICKEN SKEWERS WITH PEANUT SAUCE



Chicken Skewers With Peanut Sauce image

That peanut butter is relegated to the sandwich while sesame butter (tahini) is seen as an exotic food item is one of the wonderfully preposterous anomalies of American cooking. In the rest of the world, especially Asia, peanuts are special, used not only as a garnish but as a main ingredient in sauces. One such sauce incorporates coconut milk and classic Thai seasonings: curry paste or powder, nam pla, lime and cilantro. The coconut milk and peanuts make the mixture too powerful-tasting for most fish and too heavy for most meat. It is perfect, however, when teamed with chicken on the grill, especially boneless thighs.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup natural peanut butter, preferably chunky
1 tablespoon curry paste or curry powder, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup fresh or canned coconut milk, approximately
1 tablespoon nam pla or soy sauce
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 1/2 to 2 pounds boneless chicken thighs, cut into large chunks
Chopped fresh cilantro leaves for garnish
Lime wedges

Steps:

  • Start charcoal or gas grill or heat broiler; fire should be moderately hot, and rack should be at least 4 inches from heat. If using wood skewers, soak them in water.
  • Put peanut butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; add curry paste or powder, salt and enough coconut milk to achieve a creamy but quite thick consistency. Cook over low heat, whisking, until smooth; do not boil. Cool a bit, then stir in nam pla and lime juice.
  • Marinate chicken in this mixture for 5 minutes to an hour. Skewer chicken chunks, then grill or broil slowly, until nicely browned and cooked through, 10 minutes or longer. Serve hot, garnished with cilantro and accompanied by lime.

GINGER-LEMONGRASS CHICKEN SKEWERS WITH SPICY PEANUT DIPPING SAUCE



Ginger-Lemongrass Chicken Skewers with Spicy Peanut Dipping Sauce image

Categories     Sauce     Sandwich     Chicken     Ginger     Side     Peanut     Lemongrass

Yield MAKES ABOUT 30 SMALL SKEWERS

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 stalk fresh lemongrass
1 1/2-inch knob fresh ginger, peeled
2 large cloves garlic
2 scallions, very thinly sliced
1 tablespoon grapeseed or other neutral oil
1 1/2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice, more as needed
4 teaspoons Asian fish sauce, more as needed
3/4 teaspoon honey
1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs
1/2 cup smooth natural peanut butter
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Asian chile garlic sauce

Steps:

  • Cut the pale yellow bottom portion off the lemongrass stalk and discard the green top. Trim about 3/4 inch from the root end, then peel off and discard the tough outer layers. You should end up with a stick of only the more tender inner layers, about 1/2 inch thick and 3 inches long. Finely mince the lemongrass, along with the ginger and garlic; the pieces should be no bigger than 1/16 inch. (You can do most of this in a food processor and finish with a little hand chopping.) Put the mixture in a medium bowl and stir in the scallions, the oil, 1 tablespoon of the lime juice, 2 teaspoons of the fish sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon of the honey.
  • Slice the chicken into 1/3-inch-thick strips about 1 inch wide-slice across the grain and at an angle on breasts, and with the grain on thighs. You should have about 30 strips. Add to the bowl with the lemongrass mixture, stir to coat the chicken evenly, and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
  • To make the dipping sauce, put the peanut butter in a small bowl. Stir in enough warm water to make a thick sauce (about 1/4 cup, depending on the peanut butter), then add the vinegar, chile garlic sauce, and the remaining 2 teaspoons fish sauce, 1 1/2 teaspoons lime juice, and 1/4 teaspoon honey. Taste and adjust the saltiness, heat, or acidity to your liking; thin with more water if necessary.
  • Prepare a medium-hot gas or charcoal grill or heat a large grill pan. Meanwhile, thread the chicken onto the skewers. Grill the chicken, flipping once, until just cooked through, 1 to 3 minutes per side. (Alternatively, you can cook the skewers under a broiler-about 8 minutes total-but they won't brown as well.)
  • Serve with the dipping sauce.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for the best results.
  • Cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces for even cooking.
  • Make sure the chicken is dry before coating it in the peanut crust mixture. This will help the crust adhere to the chicken.
  • Use a food processor to grind the peanuts into a fine powder. This will help the crust stick to the chicken and give it a more even coating.
  • Season the peanut crust mixture with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder for extra flavor.
  • Use wooden or metal skewers for the chicken skewers. Bamboo skewers can burn easily, especially if you are grilling the skewers.
  • Preheat your grill or oven to the desired temperature before cooking the chicken skewers.
  • Cook the chicken skewers for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Baste the skewers with the dipping sauce during the last few minutes of cooking.
