Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Ginger Chicken Satay Skewers.
Step 1
To start, take your chicken tenders and slice them in half lengthwise to create thinner, more tender pieces.
Step 2
This little trick not only helps with cooking but also makes them easier to enjoy.
Step 3
Next, grab a large bowl, a resealable plastic container, or a zip-top bag, and mix together some soy sauce, brown sugar, grated ginger, fish sauce, and fresh lime juice.
Step 4
This marinade is where the magic happens! Add the chicken tenders to the mix, making sure they’re fully coated in that delicious marinade.
Step 5
Cover it up and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least two hours—this is the perfect time for those flavors to really soak in.
Step 6
When you’re ready to cook, fire up your outdoor grill to high heat and give the grate a light oiling to prevent sticking.
Step 7
Take the chicken out of the marinade and thread those flavorful pieces onto metal skewers, ready for grilling.
Step 8
In a small saucepan, combine the leftover marinade with a bit of cornstarch, then bring it to a boil.
Step 9
Let it simmer for about three to four minutes until it thickens into a luscious dipping sauce.
Step 10
Once your grill is hot, place the skewers on it and grill for about five minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
Step 11
For a finishing touch, sprinkle some chopped scallions on top for a burst of color and flavor.
Step 12
Serve your skewers with that tasty dipping sauce on the side, and get ready to enjoy a meal that’s bursting with flavor and sure to impress!.
