Ingredients

  • 2 lb fresh chicken tenderloins cut into bite size

Peanut sauce:

  • 1/2 cup almond butter
  • 1 clove garlic grated or finely minced
  • 1/2 cup hot water or more
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin seeds
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • Salt

Instructions

  • To make the satay sauce: combine all the ingredients. Add more hot water if the sauce is too thick. Continue stirring until you get smooth consistency and not too watery.
  • Add the chicken tender to a bowl. Pour 1/2 of the peanut sauce over the chicken in the bowl and stir until it’s evenly distributed, reserve the rest of the sauce to brush on the chicken while it is grilling. Marinate the chicken for at least 1 hour in the fridge.
  • Soak the bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes. Thread the chicken tenders onto the skewers.
  • Preheat your grill over medium-high heat. Brush the grates with oil. Place the chicken skewers onto to preheated grill and cook for 4 – 6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked.
  • Serve the chicken with satay sauce over rice. Garnish with lime juice.
