Cook Time: 40 min
Love these chicken skewers on a summer night! Such yummy flavor, peanut butter is like legit my favorite thing on the planet, well besides french fries!
Serve these with either some rice pilaf or even a side salad, or heck…BOTH!
Ingredients
· 1/3 cup light coconut milk
· 1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
· 1 teaspoon kosher salt
· 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
· 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
· 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1 inch slices
· 20 (6-inch) skewers
· 1/4 cup creamy reduced fat peanut butter
· Lime wedges
· Chopped fresh cilantro
DIRECTIONS
Whisk together coconut milk, paprika, salt, turmeric, and 1 tablespoon lime juice in a medium bowl. Reserve 2 tablespoons marinade. Add chicken to remaining marinade, and stir to coat. Cover and chill at least 30 minutes or up to 12 hours. (If chicken marinates for more than 30 minutes, refrigerate reserved marinade.)
Heat a grill pan over medium-high. Remove chicken from marinade, shaking off excess, and discard remaining marinade. Thread chicken onto soaked skewers. Working in batches, cook chicken skewers in hot grill pan until lightly charred and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
Whisk together peanut butter, 1/4 cup hot water, reserved 2 tablespoons marinade, and remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice in a medium bowl until smooth. Serve skewers with peanut sauce and lime wedges; garnish with cilantro.
