LIME-GINGER CHICKEN KABOBS WITH PEANUT SAUCE



Lime-Ginger Chicken Kabobs with Peanut Sauce image

These chicken thighs are flavorful, moist, and very easy to make. And when dipped into an Asian-inspired peanut sauce, just wait for the m-m-m-m-m's to begin. I like to serve this with Cucumber Slices with Dill (a recipe on this site) and white rice.

Time 2h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lime zest
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger root
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ cup creamy peanut butter
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon finely grated ginger
1 teaspoon sambal oelek
1 tablespoon warm water, or as needed
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, or to taste
4 lime wedges

Steps:

  • Pat chicken thighs dry with a paper towel, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks, and sprinkle with salt.
  • Stir mayonnaise, lime zest, ginger, salt, and pepper for the marinade in a bowl until smooth. Place chicken in a resealable plastic bag, add marinade, seal, and massage the bag until all the chicken pieces are coated. Place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight.
  • Soak 6-inch wooden skewers in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes.
  • Whisk peanut butter, lime juice, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, ginger, and sambal oelek together in a bowl. Slowly whisk in small amounts of warm water until dipping sauce reaches the desired consistency; set aside.
  • Heat the grill to medium-high and oil the grate.
  • Remove chicken from the marinade and thread chicken onto the skewers; discard marinade.
  • Place skewers on the hot grill and cook until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear, 10 to 12 minutes, lowering the heat if chicken is browning too fast. Turn skewers as often as necessary for even browning, and to keep the chicken from burning.
  • Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve with fresh lime wedges and peanut sauce for dipping.

ASIAN GINGER CHICKEN SKEWERS

I like this recipe because it came straight out of my head one day when I was bored and wanted something different. This goes great with fried rice either from the frozen food department or a homemade version and some snow peas with soy sauce or the asian chili sauce on the side.

ASIAN GINGER CHICKEN

This is one of my favorite and first recipes I learned from my mom. I marinate the chicken over night and back on reynolds wrap with the skin side up for 45 minutes until the skin is brown and crisp. I use the chicken renderings to season my rice and serve with a crunchy asian cucumber salad.
