Ingredients

– 1 lb (450 g) chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces

– 2 tbsp soy sauce

– 2 tbsp fish sauce

– 1 tbsp lime juice

– 2 cloves garlic, minced

– 1 tbsp red curry paste

– 1 tsp brown sugar

– 1/2 tsp black pepper

– 8 skewers (soaked in water for 30 minutes if wooden)

For the Peanut Drizzle:

– 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

– 1/4 cup water (or as needed)

– 1/2 tsp chili flakes (optional)


Instructions

2. 1. In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, fish sauce, lime juice, garlic, red curry paste, brown sugar, and black pepper to create the marinade.

4. 3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

5. 4. Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers.

6. 5. Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

7. 6. While the chicken is grilling, prepare the peanut drizzle by whisking together the peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, honey, and enough water to achieve a drizzling consistency.

8. 7. Serve the skewers hot, drizzled with the peanut sauce and garnished with chili flakes if desired.


Notes

For extra flavor, you can add vegetables like bell peppers and onions to the skewers. Serve with a side of jasmine rice or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
