Preparation Steps
1
Cut the chicken breast into thin strips for easy skewering.

In a bowl, combine the coconut milk, soy sauce, crushed garlic, grated ginger, turmeric powder, ground cumin, and brown sugar. Marinate the chicken in this mixture for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight.
3
Soak the skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent them from burning during grilling.
4
Meanwhile, prepare the satay sauce: in a small saucepan, combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, chili flakes, and a little water. Heat over medium heat, stirring until smooth.
5
Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers and brush with a little oil.
6
Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium heat. Grill the chicken skewers for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
7
Serve the chicken satay with the peanut dipping sauce and fresh lime wedges.
