A delightful twist on the classic chicken satay, featuring a rich and flavorful marinade that brings out the best in every bite.
Blend all the marinade ingredients in a food processor until smooth.
Ensure the marinade is well-blended to evenly coat the chicken.
Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
Cut the chicken into even pieces for consistent cooking.
Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Marinating overnight enhances the flavor.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Soak wooden skewers in water beforehand to prevent burning.
Bake the skewers for 30-35 minutes, basting occasionally with the remaining marinade.
Turn the skewers halfway through baking for even cooking.
Serve the skewers hot with your favorite dipping sauce and a side of rice or salad.
Garnish with chopped peanuts or fresh cilantro for added flavor.
