Chicken Satay Skewers

Chicken Satay is one of those dishes that everyone loves. The perfect combination of sweetness and zest and that huge hit of peanuts glazed over creamy chicken breast. There are few who can say no to that. This recipe is a really simple and quick take on the ancient Indonesian recipe. You could make it up the day before and throw it on the BBQ when your mates come round.

This satay paste turns out a lot greener than the usual golden brown due to the full bunch of coriander but it really lifts the flavour and makes it incredibly fresh and sweet. There will also be a fair bit of the paste left over to use for the next time.
