hi virashri_v
thanx a lot for awarding me with best response. in return i will give u another recipe of CHICKEN SATAY:
Ingredients:
• 8-16 skinless chicken thighs, cut into small pieces or strips,
• SATAY MARINADE:
• 1/4 cup minced lemongrass, fresh or frozen (if using fresh, discard the upper stalk of lemongrass)
• 1 small onion, quartered
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 thumb-size piece galangal or ginger, peeled and sliced
• 1/4 of thumb-size piece fresh turmeric, OR 1/2 tsp. dried turmeric
• 2 Tbsp. coriander seeds, ground in a coffee grinder, OR 1 Tbsp. ground coriander
• 2 tsp. cumin
• 3 Tbsp. dark soy sauce
• 4 Tbsp. fish sauce
• 5 Tbsp. brown sugar
• 1 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
Method:
1. Cut chicken or beef into thin pieces or strips). Place in a bowl.
2. Place all marinade ingredients in a mixer or a grinder and make a paste.
3. Taste the marinade. The strongest tastes should be SWEET and SALTY in order for the finished satay to taste its best
4. Add the marinade to the meat and stir well to combine. Allow to marinate for at least 1 hour, or longer (up to 24 hours).
5. When ready to cook, barbecue the satay, OR grill on an indoor grill, OR broil it in the oven on a broiling pan or baking sheet with the oven set to "broil"
6. Depending on how thin your meat is, the satay will cook in 10 to 20 minutes.
7. Serve with rice and Thai peanut sauce for dipping.
hope u will enjoy ur chicken satay!!!!!
