Pork Satay With Thai Spices and Peanut Sauce image

Throughout Southeast Asia, little skewers of marinated meat, grilled over coals, are sold as street snacks. Sweetly fragrant with coconut milk and spices, they are perfect for barbecue parties served with steamed rice, or on their own with drinks, whether grilled indoors or out. You may use pork loin or tenderloin, but marbled sirloin or shoulder is more succulent.

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds pork loin, tenderloin or shoulder, sliced into thin rectangles (1/4 inch x 1 inch x 2 inches; you should have about 24 pieces)
1 shallot, minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon grated ginger
3 tablespoons chopped lemongrass
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, toasted and ground
1 teaspoon coriander seeds, toasted and ground
1 1/2 teaspoons turmeric
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 cup coconut milk
Cilantro and basil leaves, for garnish (optional)
1 pound Persian or Japanese cucumbers, peeled, halved and cut into 1/4-inch slices
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 small shallots thinly sliced, about 1/4 cup
2 fresh Thai or serrano chiles, sliced into rounds
1 cup dry roasted peanuts, unsalted
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons lime juice, more to taste
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 cup coconut milk

Steps:

Prepare the skewers: Put pork in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, stir together shallot, garlic, ginger, lemongrass, cumin, coriander, turmeric, cayenne, fish sauce, lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar and coconut milk, and pour over meat. Toss with your hands to coat well. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight. Meanwhile, soak 12 bamboo skewers in water.
Prepare the cucumbers: Put cucumbers in a mixing bowl and season with salt. Add lime juice, sugar, shallots and chiles and toss to coat. Let stand for 15 minutes. Check seasoning, then transfer to a serving dish.
Prepare the peanut sauce: Pulse the peanuts briefly in a food processor just until finely ground. Add the garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, fish sauce, lime juice, cayenne and coconut milk, and process until well puréed. Transfer to a bowl, then taste and adjust seasoning. Thin a bit with lime juice or water as desired.
Thread 2 slices of pork onto each bamboo skewer, keeping the meat as flat as possible. Grill over hot coals, under the broiler or on a stovetop grill pan for 3 minutes on each side, until cooked through and lightly browned. Transfer to a platter and garnish with cilantro and basil leaves. Serve with cucumber relish and peanut sauce.

Ingredients

1 pound chicken tenders
½ cup soy sauce
½ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger
2 teaspoons fish sauce
1 lime, juiced
16 thin metal skewers
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 scallion, chopped

Steps:

Slice chicken in half lengthwise to get thin pieces. Prick lightly using a fork or a knife to help tenderize.
Combine soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, fish sauce, and lime juice in a large bowl, resealable plastic container, or large zip-top bag. Add chicken tenders, making sure marinade fully covers chicken. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove chicken from marinade and thread onto metal skewers.
Meanwhile, add marinade to a small saucepan with cornstarch and bring to a boil. Boil until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn off heat and transfer sauce to a small bowl for dipping.
Grill skewers on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the centers, about 5 minutes per side. Garnish with scallion and serve with sauce on the side.

Grilled Chicken Satays With Peanut Sauce image

This recipe comes from the Food Network and is credited to Emeril Lagasse. DH and I served this as one of our tapas dishes for a New Year's Eve party and the guests raved. We are looking forward to having it many times in the summer. Serve with my peanut sauce, Recipe #301105, also by Emeril. Prep time includes marinating time. You will need 35-45 medium (7 inch) bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 15 to 30 minutes.

Time 2h47m

Yield 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1/4 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 teaspoons ginger, chopped
2 teaspoons garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, trimmed and cut into thin strips (about 3 x 1/4 inch each)
peanut sauce (recipe posted separately)
chopped peanuts, garnish
cilantro, garnish

Steps:

In a medium bowl, combine the soy, oil, fish sauce, ginger, garlic, coriander, and pepper flakes. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Let marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours, turning occasionally.
Preheat the grill to medium high (or preheat the broiler).
Remove the chicken from the marinade and thread 1 strip of chicken down the middle of each skewer.
In batches, cook the satays on the grill (or on a broiler pan under the broiler) until the chicken is cooked through and the meat is browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side, watching carefully and turning so the meat does not burn.
To serve, arrange the skewers on a platter and lightly drizzle with the peanut sauce and chopped peanuts. Serve additional sauce in a bowl on the side for dipping. Garnish with cilantro sprigs and serve hot or at room temperature.
