For a spicier peanut sauce, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of sriracha. Marinating the chicken longer will result in a more flavorful and tender satay. If you don't have an outdoor grill, you can cook the satay skewers in a grill pan on the stovetop or under the broiler in your oven. Be careful not to overcrowd the grill, as this can lower the temperature and result in uneven cooking.

Follow The Directions
01
StepSoak wooden skewers in a shallow dish filled with water for at least 20 minutes. This prevents them from burning on the grill. (Time: 20 minutes)
02
StepIn a bowl, combine chicken strips with soy sauce, tomato sauce, 2 tablespoons peanut oil, minced garlic, black pepper, and cumin. Ensure chicken is well coated. Marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to a few hours in the refrigerator for enhanced flavor. (Time: 15 minutes +)
03
StepPrepare the peanut sauce: Heat 1 tablespoon of peanut oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add finely chopped onion and minced garlic; cook until softened and translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir in peanut butter, sugar, soy sauce, and water. Mix well and cook until the sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Stir in fresh lemon juice and remove from heat. (Time: 9 minutes)
04
StepPreheat an outdoor grill to high heat and lightly oil the grate to prevent sticking. Thread each marinated chicken strip onto a soaked skewer.
05
StepPlace the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for approximately 10 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred. (Time: 10 minutes)
06
StepServe the grilled chicken satay skewers immediately with the homemade peanut sauce for dipping. Garnish with chopped peanuts or cilantro for an extra touch of elegance.
