Directions

  1. Add the shallots, garlic, lemongrass, and ginger to a blender or food processor. Blend into a smooth paste. Add a little water if needed to help it blend.
  2. Place the chicken pieces in a bowl. Add the blended paste, turmeric powder, fennel powder, ground cumin, salt, sugar, and oil if using.
  3. Mix well until the chicken is fully coated with the marinade.
  4. Cover and marinate for at least 1 hour. For deeper flavor, marinate in the refrigerator for 4 hours or overnight.
  5. Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers.
  6. Heat a grill pan, charcoal grill, or nonstick pan over medium heat. Cook the chicken satay for about 9 minutes, turning often, until cooked through and lightly charred on the edges.
  7. Serve warm with peanut sauce on the side.
