2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

1 shallot, sliced thin

1 clove garlic, minced

1 1/2 teaspoons Thai fish sauce (or 2 additional teaspoons low sodium soy sauce)

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon lime zest

1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger

1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast pounded slightly and cut into 1-inch strips

8 (8-inch) bamboo skewers, soaked for 20 minutes

3/4 cup Spicy Peanut Dipping Sauce, recipe below

2 tablespoons minced fresh basil or cilantro leaves

1/4 cup chopped toasted peanuts

Spicy Peanut Dipping Sauce:

1/2 cup natural creamy peanut butter

1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth

3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger

2 tablespoons lime juice

1 teaspoon minced garlic

1 teaspoon red curry paste

1 shallot, peeled and roughly chopped

Directions

  1. In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the chicken stock, coconut milk, soy sauce, shallot, garlic, fish sauce, brown sugar, lime zest, and ginger. Add the chicken strips and marinate for 1 hour. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade.

  3. Serve chicken skewers with Peanut Dipping Sauce, and garnish with basil or cilantro and chopped peanuts.
  4. Yield: 4 servings (2 skewers and 2 tablespoons peanut sauce per serving)

Spicy Peanut Dipping Sauce:
