Satay (or sate) is a popular Asian street food consisting of small grilled skewers, often served with peanut sauce. These skewers are perfect for a picnic and are easiest to prepare using thin strips of chicken. A marinade of fish sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, lemongrass, and ginger adds a unique, vibrant Asian flavor to this appetizer. Use it to marinate the chicken, and some of the delicious marinade can be used as a dressing for a simple cabbage salad with sugar snap peas. Grill the chicken on wooden skewers and serve with a juicy salad and a spicy peanut sauce made with peanut butter and coconut milk.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Whisk together the fish sauce, lime juice, lemongrass, agave nectar, soy sauce, ginger, chili flakes, and garlic (you'll make 3/4 cup). Pour 1/2 cup of the marinade into a shallow baking dish; set aside the remaining 1/4 cup. Slice the chicken into thin strips at a slight angle. Place the chicken in the marinade in the baking dish, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  2. Strain the reserved marinade into a large bowl; mix with vegetable oil. Add shredded cabbage, peas, and cilantro; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.

  3. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat; soak about 24 skewers in water for 20 minutes. Thread the chicken onto the skewers. Lightly oil the grill grates; grill the chicken in batches until cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Toss the coleslaw; serve with the chicken and spicy peanut sauce.
