Ingredients

Units Scale

Curry Coconut Chicken

  • 4 chicken breast, About 1 lb / 500g
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk, 125ml
  • 4 cloves garlic, grated
  • 1 yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 1 stalk lemongrass, crushed and finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp green curry paste
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Peanut Satay Sauce

  • 1 cup water, 250ml
  • 1/3 cup chunky peanut butter, 80ml. Creamy works too
  • 1/2 cup hoisin sauce, 125ml
  • 2 tbsp sweet chili sauce
  • 2-3 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, grated
  • 1/2 cup coarsley chopped peanuts, optional
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped cilantro, large handful, optional

Mango Cucumber Salad

  • 2 small mango, diced
  • 1/2 cucumber, julienned or sliced
  • 1 tbsp ginger, minced
  • 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced or chopped
  • 1/2 small red chili, leave the seeds if you want more heat
  • 1-2 lime, juice only
  • handful cilantro, finely chopped

Serve with

  • steamed rice, optional*

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken: Cut the chicken into even sized chunks and mix with all the ingredients for the marinade (coconut milk through salt). Cover with foil and let it marinade at least 1 hour. Overnight is best.
  2. Grill the chicken: Thread the chicken chunks onto skewers. Preferably grill them (but in the oven or pan is fine) over high heat for 8-10 minutes. Turn the skewers a few times to make sure they are evenly grilled. Done when the juices run clear.
  3. Make the peanut sauce: Boil the water in a small saucepan, reduce to a simmer and then add the rest of the ingredients. Simmer for about a minute and stir until a smooth sauce (with peanut chunks!).
  4. Mango cucumber salad: Dice and slice all the ingredients as you wish or as stated in the ingredients list. I like to scrape out most of the seeds of the cucumber to make it less wet. Mix everything together and juice one or two lime over it. Garnish with a little bit of cilantro.
  5. Serve with steamed rice for dinner, or without as an appetizer.
