Grilled Chicken Skewers

Step 1

Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat.

Step 2

To make the peanut sauce, put the peanut butter in a blender with the soy sauce, honey, ginger, red pepper flakes, chili oil and lime juice. Add 1/4 cup very hot water as you blend the mixture. Check the consistency and add a little more hot water if needed to make it very smooth. Transfer the sauce to a small dish, cover it with plastic wrap and set aside.

Step 3

Brush the grill with oil. Thread the chicken onto the skewers and grill on both sides until the chicken is done in the middle, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a serving platter and sprinkle on the cilantro.

Step 4

Serve the skewers with dishes of the peanut sauce and a good-quality barbecue sauce for dipping.
