Grilled Chicken with Peanut Sauce

 Gilled Chicken with Peanut Sauce

FOR THE CHICKEN

• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 large lime juice only
• Black pepper to taste
• 1 pound chicken tenders threaded onto small skewers

FOR THE SAUCE

• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter I used all natural
• 1/4 inch piece fresh ginger minced
• 1 garlic clove minced
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1/2 tablespoon fish sauce
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1/2 cup coconut milk OR water or a mix of both
• honey or low carb sweetener to taste
• fresh chili cayenne pepper or chili sauce, to taste (optional)

Instructions

• Season the chicken: Place the sesame oil, soy sauce, lime juice and pepper to a shallow dish that fits the length of your skewers. Add the chicken and marinate for 15 minutes, turning the skewers occasionally. (we just grilled it without skewers) 
• Make the sauce: Place all ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl and mix well. Alternatively, blend in a mini food processor for a smoother sauce.
• Grill the chicken: Heat the grill (or a grill pan over medium high heat on the stove). Grill the kabobs until the chicken is done, about 4-8 minutes per side (depending on the thickness of your chicken).
• Serve the hot chicken skewers with the peanut dipping sauce.
