INDONESIAN CHICKEN SATAY with PEANUT SAUCE

To make the marinate,

mix in a medium bowl:

3 T soy sauce

3 T tomato paste or sauce

1 T peanut oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 pinch ground black pepper

1 t ground cumin

½ t ground coriander seed

Cut 6 chicken breasts into long and skinny ½ inch thick slices (about 1 x 3 inches). Place chicken into the mixture, and stir to coat. Cover, and marinate for at least 15 minutes, but not overnight. This will make the meat too dark.

To make the sauce,

heat 1 T peanut oil in a saucepan over medium heat and sauté:

¼ cup minced onion and

1 clove minced garlic until lightly browned.

Mix in:

1 cup water

½ cup chunky peanut butter

2 T soy sauce

2 T sugar.

Cook and stir until well blended. Remove from heat, mix in:

1 T lemon juice and set aside.

To grill the chicken:

preheat the grill for high heat. Lightly oil the grill grate. Thread chicken onto skewers, and discard marinade. Grill skewers about 5 minutes per side, until chicken juices run clear.

Serve with the Peanut Sauce.
