Satay Grilled Aubergine Recipes

SATAY GRILLED AUBERGINE

Steps:

• Toss the aubergine with the soy sauce, oil, turmeric, 1 tbsp chilli sauce and some black pepper, then thread onto pre-soaked wooden skewers. Heat a griddle pan or frying pan until medium-hot. Grill the aubergines on all sides turning after grill marks appear. They need time to soften so keep the heat on mediumlow and cook until soft and golden. Brush with a little oil if they start to stick to the pan.
• For the salad, mix together all the ingredients in a small bowl, then set aside. In another bowl, mix the remaining chilli sauce, peanut butter, hoisin, vinegar and coconut milk. Serve the skewers with the salad, peanut sauce and some basmati rice.

GRILLED BEEF SATAY

Steps:

• Thread the beef onto the soaked skewers, working the skewers in and out of the meat so that it stays in place while grilling. Combine yogurt, ginger, garlic, curry powder, and lemon juice in a shallow platter and stir to combine. Place the beef skewers into the yogurt marinade and turn them until they are well coated. Cover and let the meat marinate in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
• Place a grill pan over medium heat and brush it with oil to prevent the meat from sticking. Grill the satays for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, until nicely seared and cooked through. Serve piled on a large platter garnished with cilantro.

GINGER GRILLED CHICKEN SATAY

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 BEEF SATAY RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Instructions 1. FOR THE BASTING SAUCE: Whisk all ingredients together in bowl. Reserve one-third of sauce in separate bowl. (Use reserved sauce to apply to raw beef.) 2. FOR THE BEEF: Whisk oil, sugar, and fish sauce together in medium bowl. Toss beef with marinade and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Weave beef onto 12-inch metal skewers, 2 pieces per skewer, leaving 1 1/2 inches at top and bottom of skewer exposed. You should have 10 to 12 skewers. 3a. FOR A CHARCOAL GRILL: Poke twelve 1/2-inch holes in bottom of roasting pan. Open bottom vent completely and place roasting pan in center of grill. Light large chimney starter mounded with charcoal briquettes (7 quarts). When top coals are partially covered with ash, pour into roasting pan. Set cooking grate over coals with grates parallel to long side of roasting pan, cover, and open lid vent completely. Heat grill until hot, about 5 minutes. 3b. FOR A GAS GRILL: Turn all burners to high, cover, and heat grill until very hot, about 15 minutes. Leave all burners on high. 4. Clean and oil cooking grate. Place beef skewers on grill (directly over coals if using charcoal) perpendicular to grate. Brush meat with one-third basting sauce (portion reserved for raw meat) and cook (covered if using gas) until browned, about 3 minutes. Flip skewers, brush with half of remaining basting sauce, and cook until browned on second side, about 3 minutes. Brush meat with remaining basting sauce and cook 1 minute longer. Transfer to large platter and serve with peanut sauce. Technique How to Prep Lemon Grass The tender heart of the lemon grass stalk is used to flavor many Southeast Asian dishes, including our Grilled Beef Satay. While lemon grass is often steeped in soups and stews and removed before serving, it can also be minced and left in the dish. When buying lemon grass, look for green (not brown) stalks that are firm and fragrant. 1. Trim dry leafy top (this part is usually green) and tough bottom of each stalk. 2. Peel and discard dry outer layer until moist, tender inner stalk is exposed. 3. Smash peeled stalk with bottom of heavy saucepan to release maximum flavor from fibrous stalk.

GRILLED CHICKEN SATAY

Steps:

• Put wooden skewers in a shallow dish and cover with water. Let soak for 20 minutes.
• Place chicken strips into a bowl. Combine soy sauce, tomato sauce, peanut oil, garlic, pepper, and cumin in a small bowl; mix to combine. Pour over chicken strips and mix so chicken is well coated on all sides. Marinate for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the peanut sauce. Add 1 tablespoon oil to a hot skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook and stir until onion is soft and translucent, about 4 minutes. Add peanut butter, sugar, soy sauce, and water. Mix well. Cook until sauce has thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. Add lemon juice and remove from heat.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. Thread each chicken strip onto a skewer.
• Place skewers on the preheated grill and cook for a total of 10 minutes, flipping once halfway through cooking. Serve the satay skewers immediately with the peanut sauce for dipping.
