I HAVE to diversify my menu. Ever since I started cooking, I always needed to change my menu for many reasons. First, I can’t stand monotony. Having the same recipe over and over would make life so boring. Second, it forces me to balance our diet for a healthy lifestyle. Third, I’m too curious to stick with just one type of cuisine which brings me to challenge myself with foreign recipes.
The first Asian recipe that I started making when I was a novice in the kitchen was Chicken Satay! It was so easy to prepare and the results were quite delicious. Over the years, I modified the recipe with other ingredients, giving my marinade a deeper level of flavor.
This is the kind of food you want to make because of its simplicity. When I had my first Chicken Satay at my girlfriend’s place, I was stunned. She served it with a spicy peanut sauce… well to me back then, it was quite “spicy”. She wanted me to discover a part of her heritage… Indonesia.
It’s fascinating to discover other cultures through their foods. Satay is Indonesia’s national delicacy. Did you know that this Indonesian indigenous dish is quite popular in other countries like Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam as well as in Malaysia?
Although I showcase the chicken in this satay recipe, you can always use other proteins such as pork, beef, lamb, fish, goat and others. When I make my chicken satay, I prefer serving it with peanut sauce but nothing is stopping you from serving it with a sweet soy sauce… they are both quite lovely!
If you are looking for a delicious change on your menu, this recipe is an easy one to try. It’s light, flavorful and I’m positive your family will enjoy it…
Bon Appétit!
