Satay is a classic street snack enjoyed all over Southeast Asia, from the bustling streets of Bangkok to the far-flung islands of Malaysia and Indonesia. It consists of spicy skewers served with a sweet and tangy peanut sauce, and is usually served with plain rice and sliced cucumber on the side.

Indonesian Satay Recipe:
PREP 10 mins
COOK 30 mins
HEAT 2
Serves 4
You Need:
500g diced chicken (thighs are best) or use diced firm tofu for a veg version
½ cucumber - peeled and thinly sliced
1 lime
200ml coconut milk (full fat is best)
100g peanuts or cashew nuts (roasted and salted are fine) - crushed or ground to a fine texture
2 tbsp soy sauce (any type)
2 tbsp sugar
Rice to serve
1 portion of Indonesian Satay Blend
Method:
Mix the chicken with 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 ½ tsp sugar and ½ of the INDONESIAN SATAY BLEND
Cook the rice and preheat the grill or light the BBQ now
To make the satay sauce, toast the ground peanuts in a dry pan, stirring regularly, for 3 minutes or until golden-brown, then add the coconut milk, juice of ½ the lime, remaining 1 tbsp soy sauce, remaining 1 ½ tbsp sugar, remaining INDONESIAN SATAY BLEND and ¼ tsp salt. Simmer for 2 minutes or until you have a sauce the consistency of double cream (adding a splash of water if necessary)
Thread the marinated chicken onto 4 skewers then grill on a foil-lined tray (or directly on the grill if using a BBQ) on a high heat, turning frequently, for 10 minutes or until cooked through and charred around the edges
Serve the chicken with the satay sauce, rice, cucumber and remaining ½ lime cut into wedges on the side

It's a lovely blend, super tasty and authentic! Children loved the Satay flavour of the turkey. Had to freestyle a little, didn't have coconut milk and added a beaten egg but still made for an excellent stir fry dish
Very rich and tasty satay sauce that went extremely well with the chicken and rice. Highly recommend
We're so pleased to hear how much you loved this sweet, nutty seasonal blend, James!
Such a tasty meal! Can be done with chicken or tofu, I've tried both and both are equally as delicious!
This looks stunning! Happy spicing!
Made this on the BBQ and everyone loved it. The sauce was delicious and the best satay sauce I have ever had. I marinated the chicken for about 8 hours but otherwise just followed the recipe. Easy to make and superb. Will have to order some more.
We’re so happy to hear that this went down a treat at your BBQ, Gary - thanks for the lovely review! Make sure you get in there quick to order some more, as our seasonal blends are only made in limited quantities, so unfortunately won’t be around forever!
Made these last night on the BBQ using cashews instead of peanuts. Very tasty, we've added this to the favourites list.
Great job adapting the recipe and using cashews instead of the traditional peanuts - we're pleased to hear that it went down a treat!
