Thai Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce

Thai Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce

 

 

 

 

Thai Chicken Satay Skewers are tasty enough to eat plain but we'd never skip Thai Peanut Sauce for dipping! The essential ingredient for a really great peanut sauce is natural peanut butter with no added sugar or oil. But normal peanut butter will work fine too.
