Thai Chicken Satay
Flavorful, aromatic, and fun to eat, Thai Chicken Satay is a beloved street food classic that features tender strips of marinated chicken skewered and grilled to smoky perfection, then served with a rich, creamy peanut dipping sauce. This iconic Thai appetizer is a perfect balance of savory, sweet, and slightly spicy flavors.
Boneless chicken pieces are marinated in a fragrant blend of coconut milk, garlic, ginger, lemongrass, curry powder, turmeric, soy sauce, and a hint of brown sugar, which tenderizes the meat and infuses it with layers of warm, exotic flavor. The marinated chicken is then threaded onto bamboo skewers and grilled or charred over an open flame until juicy and lightly caramelized, with beautiful grill marks and a tempting aroma.
Thai Chicken Satay is traditionally served with a side of homemade peanut sauce — a creamy blend of roasted peanuts, coconut milk, red curry paste, soy sauce, lime juice, and a touch of sweetness — along with a refreshing cucumber-onion relish (ajard) for a cooling contrast.
Tender, smoky, and bursting with authentic Thai spices, these satay skewers are perfect as a starter, party snack, or light meal, bringing the vibrant taste of Thai street food right to your plate.
