A delightful twist on the classic chicken satay, these skewers are bursting with flavor and perfect for any occasion.
Combine the soy sauce, turmeric, ginger, minced garlic, finely chopped onion, red pepper flakes, chopped cilantro, and black pepper in a mixing bowl.
Ensure the marinade is well mixed to evenly coat the chicken.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
Cut the chicken into uniform pieces for even cooking.
Place the chicken pieces into the marinade and toss to coat evenly.
For best results, let the chicken marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
Use metal skewers if you prefer to skip this step.
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the soaked skewers.
Leave a little space between pieces for even cooking.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Ensure the grill is clean and oiled to prevent sticking.
Grill the skewers for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Serve the skewers hot with your favorite side dishes.
Garnish with extra cilantro for a fresh touch.
