Ingredients

Chicken

  • ½ cup coconut milk
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 ½ teaspoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ¾ pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves – cut into 1 inch strips
  • 10 (6 inch) wooden skewers, or as needed, soaked in water for 30 minutes

Peanut Sauce

  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • ¾ cup chicken stock
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 2 tablespoons lime or lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • salt to taste

Directions

Step 1
Make the chicken: Whisk coconut milk, garlic, brown sugar, curry powder, salt, and pepper together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add chicken and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

Step 2
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 3
Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess. Thread marinated chicken onto skewers; discard remaining marinade.

Step 4
Make the peanut sauce: Whisk coconut milk, chicken stock, peanut butter, brown sugar, and curry powder together in a saucepan over medium-high heat until simmering. Reduce the heat and simmer, whisking constantly, until smooth and thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in lime juice, soy sauce, and salt.

Step 5
While the sauce is coming to a simmer, cook chicken skewers on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 4 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Step 6
Serve skewers with warm peanut sauce.
