The richness of red curry and the tenderness of grilled chicken come together in this Thai-inspired dish to make a meal that is both satisfying and healthy.

Here’s how to prepare and cook red curry chicken satay skewers, perfect for lunch or dinner. 

Ingredients

Red Curry Chicken Satay Skewers ingredients
  • 3 tbsp. Thai Red Curry Paste (divided)
  • 1 1/2 tbsp. Coconut Sugar (divided)
  • 3 tbsp. Tamari (divided)
  • 1/2 tsp. Turmeric
  • 567 grams Chicken Thighs (boneless, skinless, cut into 1-inch cubes)

  • 2 tbsp. Lime Juice
  • 1/3 cup Water
  • 4 Barbecue Skewers
  • 1/4 cup Cilantro (roughly chopped, optional)

Directions

1. Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine 1 tbsp of Thai red curry paste, 1/2 tbsp of coconut sugar, 1 tbsp of tamari, and turmeric. Add the chicken cubes and toss to coat evenly.
Cover and refrigerate for two hours to let the flavors blend.

2. Prepare the Peanut Sauce
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, remaining 2 tbsps of Thai red curry paste, remaining 1 tbsp of coconut sugar, remaining 2 tbsps of tamari, lime juice, and water until smooth. Set the sauce aside for serving.

3. Grill the Skewers
Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto the barbecue skewers. Grill over medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes per side, until browned and fully cooked through.

4. Serve
Serve the grilled chicken skewers with the peanut sauce on the side. Garnish with cilantro, if desired.

Notes:

  • Leftovers: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.

  • Barbecue Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling.

  • Nut-Free: Substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter for a nut-free version.

  • More Flavor: Marinate the chicken overnight and add a splash of toasted sesame oil to the peanut sauce for extra richness.

  • Vegetarian/Vegan Option: Replace the chicken with firm tofu or tempeh cubes.

  • Low-Sugar: Instead of coconut sugar, you can use a natural sweetener like honey or maple syrup.
