Peanut satay marinade recipe

Who says marinade recipes need to be complicated? This 3 ingredient wonder makes for an easy satay sauce that's nice as marinade for chicken kebabs or breasts, or as a dipping sauce for parties. Satay sauce can be used for marinating meat, but also works well in stir frys or other dishes.



Satay sauce - 3 ingredients

  • 1/4 cup of crunchy peanut butter
  • 1 tin of coconut milk / cream
  • 1/2 an onion, chopped very fine


Peanut satay chicken marinating in satay sauce



Start by sauteeing the onions on a non-stick pan. I try to avoid adding additional oil as the peanut butter has plenty of oil. Add the peanut butter and coat the onions for a minute or so.

Then, slowly add the coconut milk to the pan, stirring constantly. The sauce will thicken up, and after a few minutes you are all done.




The sauce will thicken as it cools, so you can get away with a reasonably runny mixture, especially when you are making a dipping sauce.

@Perez: You do realise the above image is the uncooked picture right? You are supposed to actually cook the chicken before you serve it to your guests.

If pictures of uncooked meat offend you, then maybe go look up some vegetarian recipes or something.
