• 1/4 cup coconut milk
• 2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce
• 2 1/2 teaspoons yellow curry powder
• 1 1/2 teaspoons turmeric
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon fish sauce
• 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch chunks

• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
For the peanut sauce
• 3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
• 1 tablespoon reduced sodium soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
• 2 teaspoons brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons chili garlic sauce, or more, to taste
• 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
How to:
- To make the peanut sauce, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, chili garlic sauce and ginger in a small bowl. Whisk in 2-3 tablespoons water until desired consistency is reached; set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine coconut milk, soy sauce, curry powder, turmeric, garlic, ginger, brown sugar and fish sauce.
- In a gallon size Ziploc bag or large bowl, combine chicken and coconut milk mixture; marinate for at least 2 hours to overnight, turning the bag occasionally.
- Drain the chicken from the marinade, discarding the marinade.
- Preheat grill to medium high heat. Thread chicken onto skewers. Brush with canola oil; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Add skewers to grill, and cook, turning occasionally, until the chicken is completely cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 12-15 minutes.
- Serve immediately with peanut sauce and some sliced limes to squeeze over the skewers
