I have been a mood to make appetizers for dinner lately. I will make a big salad and an appetizer to go with it. The kids love anything on a stick so these Asian Chicken Satay Skewers with Spicy Thai Peanut Sauce was really fun for them. The trick to these skewers in marinating them overnight to get them completely flavored in my satay spices. I also like to use buttermilk to marinate my chicken breast tenders for a really tender and moist chicken. The buttermilk is also less thick than marinating the chicken in yogurt so the outside of the chicken is less "gloppy" when you go to skewer them and grill them. The kids had fun helping me put the chicken on the wooden skewers and we grilled them on the stove top until fully cooked. You can also finish them off in the oven if you wish. The best part of these skewers was the Spicy Thai Peanut Sauce that I made with coconut milk and peanut butter. Wow, I love this sauce and it's even makes a great peanut stir fry sauce.
