Satay Sauce & Lemon Grass Grilled Chicken

I had some satay sauce (spicy peanut sauce) left in the freezer, which the hubs brought back from his shop the other day. I wanted to clear my freezer and fridge of all the food before our trip back to my parents, so I whipped this dish up for dinner – grilled chicken with lemon grass and satay sauce.

In the morning, I marinated the boneless chicken thighs with salt, soy sauce, pepper,  pounded fresh turmeric (you can also use turmeric powder), agave nectar (you can also use honey) and chopped lemon grass.  In the evening, the chicken thighs were grilled for 20 minutes in the oven, together with stalks of lemon grass.

While the chicken were grilling in the oven, I heated up the satay sauce in the microwave oven and blanched some lettuce.  Sherilyn helped to slice the cucumbers.

Once the chicken thighs turn golden brown on the outside and cooked in the inside, remove from the oven. Pour satay sauce over and bon appetit!

This dish tasted like chicken satay and is way healthier and more hygienic than satay 🙂

So the next time you have some extra satay sauce when you buy satay, do not throw them away.  Keep it in the freezer for this easy-to-cook dish!
