I am so glad you asked this question. This is my favorite recipe. When we first had them, we melted. I served these last month at our wine tasting event and everyone RAVED. I hope you like them as much as we do. If you don't them on skewers, I would just use chicken breasts and flatten them out a bit before marinating them. You could even do strips too and serve over rice. Yummy!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup coconut milk
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 lbs chicken cutlets
30 wooden skewers, soaked for 30 mins
Directions:
