This is a great recipe for summertime grilling. I love making this for company, either for dinner or for an appetizer.
Ingredients:
1 tsp coriander seed
1 tsp cumin seed
1 Tbs chopped garlic
1 Tbs fresh grated ginger
1 bunch (mostly stems) cilantro
2 Tbs fish sauce
1 Tbs curry powder
pinch of tumeric powder
1/2 can coconut milk
3 Tbs of palm sugar
1-2 lbs of chicken breast (cut into thin slices)
bamboo skewers
NOTE: Red bird chicken (at City Market) has pre-sliced breast and that works great!
Soak bamboo in water for 30 mins.
Place the coriander, cumin, garlic and cilantro in food processor and pulse for few seconds until coarsely chopped. Add all ingredients in lg. pyrex dish, you might need to heat the palm sugar up a bit for it to melt. Mix well and add sliced chicken and marinate (preferably overnight) for at least 2-3 hours.
Prepare grill and take chicken out of fridge and let come to room temp. before placing on grill. Cook for about 3-5 minutes on each side.
Serve with peanut sauce and a side of cucumber salad (recipe to follow).
Peanut sauce:
1 C chopped roasted peanuts
3 cloves finely chopped garlic
2 Tbs red curry paste
1 tsb fish sauce
1/2 can coconut milk
4 tsp lime juice
3 Tbs palm sugar
Mix all ingredients in bowl (except lime juice) into paste then add lime juice according to taste. We like it on the sweet side, so whatever your family likes.
Cucumber salad:
1/2 C white vinegar
1Tbs sugar
1 english cucumber quartered and sliced
1/2 purple onion thinly sliced
1 tsp crushed pepper flakes
Mix all ingredients together in bowl and cover until ready to eat.
