Chicken Saté with Peanut Sauce

Serves 4

Saté:
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into strips
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons bottled ground fresh ginger
1 teaspoon grated lime rind
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced

Sauce:
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 garlic clove, minced

Cooking spray
Wooden skewers (soaked in water for at least one hour)

1. Prepare grill.
2. To prepare saté, combine chicken and next 6 ingredients (through 2 garlic cloves) in a medium bowl. Let stand 10 minutes.
3. To prepare sauce, combine 1 tablespoon brown sugar and the next 5 ingredients (through 1 garlic clove) in a medium bowl, stirring until sugar dissolves.
4. Thread chicken strips onto wooden skewers. Place chicken on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 5 minutes on each side or until chicken is done. Serve chicken with sauce.

Served with sautéed endives (I was feeling daring...not sure I'll try those again) and peas for the boys.

Results: I've made this one before and love how quick and easy it is to make. It's also very yummy, especially if you have a kid who likes peanut butter. Henry was very proud that he made the peanut sauce, and let us know (no fewer than five times) that "I made the sauce!" We also got a big "Mmmmmmmmmmm!" from him when he dunked his chicken in the sauce. Fake gagging from Steven, who wouldn't even try it.
