Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp curry powder
- 1 tbsp brown sugar

- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tsp sriracha(optional)
- 8 wooden skewers

Instructions
- 1
Soak wooden skewers in water for 10 minutes while prepping. Cut chicken thighs into long strips about 1 inch wide.

In a bowl, whisk together coconut milk, soy sauce, curry powder, brown sugar, minced garlic, and lime juice. Add chicken strips, toss to coat, and marinate 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the peanut sauce: whisk peanut butter, 3 tbsp warm water, rice vinegar, remaining soy sauce, and sriracha until smooth. Set aside.

Thread chicken strips onto soaked skewers, weaving so each strip folds over itself 2-3 times.

Grill or pan-sear skewers over medium-high heat 4-5 minutes per side until charred and cooked through (internal temp 165°F), about 10 minutes total.
