Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
***MARINADE***
1 tablespoon Light brown sugar
1 tablespoon Curry powder
2 tablespoons Crunchy peanut butter
1/2 cup Soy sauce
1/2 cup Freshly squeezed lime juice
2 Garlic cloves -- minced
Crushed dried chile peppers
******
6 Chicken breast halves
ÿboned -- skinned, and cut
ÿinto 1/2" wide strips

----------------------------PEANUT SAUCE--------------------------------
2/3 c Crunchy peanut butter 1 1/2 c Coconut milk, unsweetened 1/4 c
Freshly squeezed lemon juice 2 tb Soy sauce 2 tb Molasses (or brown
sugar) 1 ts Fresh ginger root, grated 4 Garlic cloves, minced 1/4 c
Chicken broth 1/4 c Heavy cream Cayenne pepper Grated lime zest Fresh
cilantro sprigs

To make the marinade, combine the first 7 ingredients in a shallow
dish. Thread the chicken strips onto bamboo skewers in a serpentine
fashion. Place the skewers into the soy sauce mixture and let marinate
in the refrigerator at least 2 hours, although overnight is preferable.

Make the peanut sauce by combining the next 7 ingredients (peanut
butter through garlic) in a saucepan. Season to taste with cayenne
pepper. Cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce
is as thick as heavy cream (about 15 minutes). Transfer to a food
processor or blender and pur‚e briefly. Add chicken broth and cream and
blend until smooth. This mixture can be made several hours ahead and
stored in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature before serving.

Prepare moderate-hot charcoal coals or preheat a broiler.

Cook the skewered chicken, turning several times and basting with the
marinade, until crispy on the outside but still moist on the inside,
about 8 minutes. Sprinkle grilled chicken with lime zest and garnish
with cilantro leaves. Serve with the peanut sauce for dipping.
