I loved the marinade for this, but the peanut sauce left something to be desired. I added a half cup of coconut milk and that made it closer to my liking. I’ll stick with my usual no-cook peanut sauce with garlic, ginger, soy sauce, chili flakes, cilantro and honey.

I love this recipe- it never fails to satisfy my craving for something sweet and savory. I usually cook the chicken up in a saute pan if a grill isn’t available, and it works just as well. This is one dish that I ALWAYS look forward to the leftovers for lunch the next day!

Easy and delicious! This recipe made quite a bit of the peanut sauce, which worked well because my husband and kids couldn’t get enough of it. The chicken by itself had great flavor too!

Fabulous! I have been trying Satay recipes for years and the search is over. Angie, your recipe is easy, well written, and the flavor is perfect. I love the simpleness of the marinade. We used chicken tenders and grilled them. The Satay and peanut sauce is better than my favorite Thai place!We served the Satay with a Thai cucumber salad. Your Satay is so authentic. Thank you for posting, I can’t wait to try your other recipes. I’m giving it 5 mittens for Authentic Thai, Simple instructions, Ease of ingredients, and TASTE.

This was a fabulous recipe! It was so easy to make, and turned out delicious.
I will admit that I misread the recipe when adding peanut butter, and I only added 1/2 to 3/4 cup, and it was plenty of pb!
Thinking of tossing leftover sauce with some noodles and veggies another day!

YUM! We made this recipe exactly “as is” and really enjoyed it. Both the chicken marinade and the sauce were delicious. Even my 9-year-old, who hates any part of chicken other than the nuggets, stuffed herself — sans sauce, of course, since she’s diametrically opposed to anything interesting. The rest of us, though, had zero complaints. I found when making the sauce that (a) I added substantially more water than the recipe called for in order to get a smooth, pourable sauce (probably between 3/4 and 1 cup), and (b) whisking steadily for about 5 minutes off-heat was key to incorporating all the ingredients. The only direction we failed to follow (and regretted it) was to wear gloves when handling the marinated chicken. There’s enough turmeric in this recipe to dye an entire Brownie troop yellowish orange. Consider yourself warned.

I’m afraid I found this recipe rather disappointing. I was hoping for something closer to the satay at our favorite Thai restaurant, but this wasn’t it. This had an overwhelming peanut butter flavor. I ended up adding a lot more of the spices to it to try and counter this, but even then the flavor wasn’t that great.

This was really great! We didn’t follow the rules, and used crunchy natural peanut butter and fresh cilantro instead of coriander, also added 2 T of olive oil to the peanut sauce instead of the water. No separation at all!
