How to Make Thai Chicken Satay

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over high heat.
  2. Add 1 pound of cubed chicken, 2 cloves of minced garlic, and 1/2 cup of chopped onion. Stir-fry for 3 minutes until chicken is lightly browned.
  3. Add 1 red bell pepper (sliced), 1/2 cup of sliced carrots, and 1/2 cup of broccoli florets. Stir-fry for another 5 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
  4. In a separate saucepan, combine 1/2 cup peanut butter, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons honey, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon fish sauce, and 1/2 cup water. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until smooth and well combined.
  5. Transfer the chicken and vegetables to a large platter. Pour the peanut sauce evenly over the chicken and vegetables.
  6. Sprinkle generously with 1/4 cup chopped peanuts and 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro.
  7. Serve immediately over steamed rice.
