Spicy peanut sauce is the perfect match for these marinated grilled chicken strips.
Ingredients
3 tablespoons lime juice
3 tablespoons neutral oil, such as canola or avocado
2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons fish sauce, (see ingredient note)
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 pound chicken tenders
2 tablespoons smooth natural peanut butter
2 tablespoons 'lite' coconut milk, (see tip)
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon brown sugar
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper, or to taste
Directions
To prepare chicken: Whisk 3 tablespoons lime juice, oil, 2 teaspoons soy sauce, fish sauce and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper in a shallow dish until combined; add chicken and turn to coat. Let marinate in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
To prepare peanut sauce: Whisk peanut butter, coconut milk, lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar and red pepper until smooth.
Preheat grill to high. Thread each chicken tender onto a wooden skewer. Grill until cooked through and no longer pink in the middle, about 3 minutes per side. Serve warm or chilled with Spicy Peanut Sauce.
