Ingredients

Directions

  1. Slice the chicken breast into wide, thin strips, approximately 2 inches by 3/4 inch, ensuring they are flat and thin for even cooking.
  2. Thread the chicken strips onto skewers, leaving about 4 inches of the skewer handle exposed for easy handling.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, fish sauce, minced garlic, toasted ground coriander seeds, toasted ground cumin seeds, and tamarind water to create the marinade.
  4. Arrange the skewered chicken in a shallow dish, overlapping the handles if necessary, and pour the marinade evenly over the meat.
  5. Let the chicken marinate for 30 to 60 minutes, turning the skewers occasionally to ensure thorough flavor absorption.
  6. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat while the chicken marinates.
  7. Grill the chicken skewers for about 1 minute on each side, just until cooked through but not overcooked, to maintain juiciness.
  8. Serve the hot satay immediately with peanut sauce on the side for dipping.
