Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Marinate Chicken: Combine soy sauce, coconut milk, garlic, lime juice, brown sugar, and pepper. Add chicken, coat well, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  2. Prepare Skewers: Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
  3. Thread Chicken: Cut marinated chicken into even pieces and thread onto soaked skewers.
  4. Grill Chicken: Preheat grill to medium-high (400°F). Grill skewers for 5-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked.
  5. Make Peanut Sauce: Mix peanut butter with coconut milk until smooth. Stir in Sriracha sauce to taste.
  6. Serve: Plate the skewers and drizzle peanut sauce over them. Garnish with peanuts or cilantro if desired.
