Dairy-Free & Egg-Free Chicken Satay with Peanut-Free Sauce
Classic Indonesian chicken satay made safe for dairy and egg allergies, featuring a rich sunflower seed-based sauce that mimics the peanut flavor.
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Chicken Thighs
- 1/4 cup Soy Sauce
- 2 tablespoons Lime Juice
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Ginger
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric
- 1/2 teaspoon Cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon Coriander
- 1/2 cup Sunflower Seed Butter
- 1/2 cup Coconut Milk
- 2 tablespoons Brown Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
Instructions
- 1Cut the 1.5 lbs Chicken Thighs into bite-sized cubes, about 1-inch pieces.
- 2In a medium bowl, combine the 1/4 cup Soy Sauce, 2 tablespoons Lime Juice, 3 cloves minced Garlic, 1 tablespoon grated Ginger, 1 teaspoon Turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon Cumin, and 1/2 teaspoon Coriander. Add the cut chicken to this marinade and toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- 3While the chicken marinates, prepare the sunflower seed sauce. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the 1/2 cup Sunflower Seed Butter, 1/2 cup Coconut Milk, 2 tablespoons Brown Sugar, and 1 teaspoon Sriracha until smooth and well combined.
- 4Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers, leaving a small space between each piece.
- 5Heat 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil in a large grill pan or on an outdoor grill over medium-high heat until shimmering. Carefully place the chicken skewers onto the hot pan or grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
- 6Remove the chicken skewers from the heat and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving. Serve the chicken satay with the prepared sunflower seed sauce on the side.
