Indonesian-style Spicy Chicken Sate with Cucumber
Sate Ayam Pedas with Cool Cucumber Relish and Spicy Peanut Sauce
Ingredients:
For the Chicken Sate:
1 ½ lbs boneless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized cubes
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon kecap manis (Indonesian sweet soy sauce)
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
½ teaspoon chili powder
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Bamboo skewers, soaked in water
For the Peanut Sauce:
½ cup roasted peanuts (or ½ cup smooth peanut butter)
2 cloves garlic
1 small red chili (adjust to heat preference)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon kecap manis
1 teaspoon lime juice
¼ cup water (or as needed for desired consistency)
For the Cucumber Relish:
1 cup cucumber, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
Pinch of salt
Optional: thinly sliced red onion or red chili
Directions:
In a large bowl, combine all chicken marinade ingredients. Add chicken cubes and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 1 hour (overnight for deeper flavor).
While marinating, blend all peanut sauce ingredients until smooth. Add water gradually until you reach a pourable consistency. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix vinegar, sugar, salt, and cucumber slices. Let sit for 15–30 minutes to pickle lightly.
Thread marinated chicken pieces onto soaked skewers. Grill over medium heat for 3–4 minutes per side, or until nicely charred and cooked through.
Serve hot with peanut sauce drizzled on top or on the side. Add a spoonful of cucumber relish for a refreshing balance.
