Ingredients

Chicken Satay

  • 1/2 cup Asian peanut sauce
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Cucumber Salad

  • 3 cups thinly sliced peeled seedless cucumbers
  • 1/3 cup halved thinly sliced red onion

Toppings

  • 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped cocktail peanuts
  • 2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onions (2 medium)
  • 3/4 cup Asian peanut sauce

Directions

  •  
    1
    Soak 8 (10-inch) wooden skewers in water 30 minutes. Heat gas or charcoal grill. Place 1/2 cup peanut sauce in medium bowl; set aside. Cut chicken crosswise into 1/2-inch thick slices. Thoroughly coat chicken slices with sauce in bowl; sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes.

    3
    Remove chicken from bowl; discard peanut sauce. On each skewer, thread 4 to 5 chicken slices. Place skewers on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 6 to 8 minutes, turning once, until chicken is no longer pink in center.

    To serve, divide cucumber salad among 4 serving plates. Top with chicken skewers and toppings.

Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    Peanut sauces can be spicy. Check out the ingredients on the label before buying to get an idea of how hot the sauce is.
  • tip 2
    When placing chicken on skewers, keep the skewers centered in the chicken slices as much as possible so the slices have less exposure to the grill surface to avoid burning.
