This is from Costco Magazine, April 2013 and is a recipe from Alice Currah's book Savory Sweet Life. It is totally awesome chicken! Ingredients:
3 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes |
24 wooden skewers |
1/4 cup soy sauce |
3 tablespoons firmly packed dark brown sugar |
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
2 tablespoons oil |
1 tablespoon curry powder |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 teaspoon finely minced fresh ginger |
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cardamom |
1 (13 1/2 ounce) can coconut milk (not fat free or light) |
1/4 cup peanut butter |
1/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1 tablespoon soy sauce |
1 1/2 teaspoons red curry paste |
Directions:
1. Place the chicken in a medium bowl. Prepare the marinade: Whisk all of the ingredients together in a separate bowl. Pour the marinade over the chicken and massage the meat with your hands for 1 minute to coat the cubes well. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or as long as overnight.
2. (Soak the 24 wooden skewers in ice-cold water for 15 minutes to prevent them from burning, set aside.).
3. Prepare the peanut coconut sauce: Combine all of the ingredients in a saucepan and cook over medium heat for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.
4. Spray a grill rack with nonstick cooking spray and set the heat to high or use a grill pan. Thread 6 to 8 chicken cubes onto each skewer. When the grill is ready, cook the chicken for 8-10 minutes, turning the skewers over halfway through. Remove the skewers from the grill and allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving.
5. Serve the peanut coconut sauce alongside the chicken skewers.
