Charred on sticks

45 minutes · serves 4 · Easy

What you need

  • 600g chicken thigh
  • 1 tbsp turmeric
  • 1 tbsp coriander seed
  • 2 shallots
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 150g peanut butter
  • 200ml coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp sambal
  • 1 lime

What you do

  1. 1Cut the chicken small and marinate in blitzed shallot, garlic, turmeric, coriander and sugar for an hour.
  2. 2Soak wooden skewers, or they burn through before the chicken cooks.
  3. 3Thread loosely. Packed tight, the middle steams.
  4. 4Grill hot and fast, turning often. The sugar wants to catch, not burn.
  5. 5For the sauce, warm peanut butter, coconut milk and sambal with a splash of water until it pours.
  6. 6Lime over the skewers, sauce on the side for dipping.
