Grilled Chicken Satays and Peanut Sauce

This is a really nice peanut sauce that goes well with chicken or pork.  I grilled outdoors but you could broil the satays if you do not have a bbq.

PEANUT SAUCE
1/3 cup smooth peanut butter
1/4 cup warm water
2 tbsp hoisin sauce
1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
2 tbsp seasoned rice vinegar
2 tbsp sodium reduced soy sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
1/2 tsp Asian garlic chili paste or sauce

CHICKEN SATAYS
boneless, skinless chicken breast 750g
2 tbsp sodium reduced soy sauce
2 tsp sesame oil
2 tsp fresh ginger, grated
1 large clove garlic, grated

• Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using to reduce flare ups on the grill.
• PEANUT SAUCE:  In a bowl, whisk together peanut butter, water and hoisin sauce until smooth.  Add ginger, vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil and chili paste and whisk until combined.  Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Using a chef’s knife, cut chicken crosswise into thin slices about 1/4 inch thick and place into a large bowl.  Add soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger and garlic; stir to coat well.  Let stand for 15 minutes or cover and refrigerate for up to 8 hours.
• Thread chicken onto small soaked skewers.  Place on greased grill over medium high heat turning once for about 6 minutes or until no longer pink inside.  Serve with peanut sauce.
