These skewers bring serious flavor with hardly any effort.
Marinated in a quick blend of soy sauce, garlic, curry powder, and brown sugar, the chicken grills up juicy and golden with a hint of char.
Jump to RecipeThe real star, though, is the creamy peanut dipping sauce—just five pantry ingredients whisked together into something magical.
It’s salty-sweet, tangy, and so good you’ll want to use it on more than just skewers.
Serve the satay over rice, with a side of crisp cucumbers or lime wedges.
It’s a low-lift, high-impact dinner that feels like a little celebration for two.
