Preparation
- In a food processor, blend the peanut butter, coconut milk, spring onions, garlic, ginger, chilies, curry powder, cumin, turmeric, salt, soy sauce, and lime juice into a smooth paste; this should make about 2 cups. Reserve half of the marinade and pour the other half over the chicken thighs. Mix and chill for 2 hours or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 425˚F (220˚C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Skewer the marinated chicken onto bamboo skewers, then arrange the skewers so their ends rest on the edges of the baking tray, allowing the chicken to be suspended. Bake the chicken skewers for 15-20 minutes, until slightly dark brown on the edges and cooked through.
- With no oil in the pan, toast the chopped peanuts on low to medium heat, stirring constantly until the peanuts turn golden brown, 2-3 minutes. Add in the reserved marinade and the coconut milk. Stir and cook until thick and very aromatic, 5-10 minutes.
- Serve the chicken skewers with the sauce on the side.
- Enjoy!

This was so delicious. I didn’t have green onions or fresh chilies and it was still amazing. I used chicken thighs and didn’t bother with the skewers. We just threw the meat on the grill and it was so tasty! This will be part of our rotation. And, for anyone who cares, it’s pretty keto friendly. Thanks!

They were so good and really easy to make (I’m 13)! I ended up having left over marinated sauce though. Definitely make again!

This was delicious!!! I didn’t have peanuts so I just used all peanut butter. The sauce separated a bit, probably because I didn’t use peanuts but it was delicious! This will be a staple for chicken dinners. The chicken was super tender after marinating.
