Sate Ayam

Method

1. 1

   Marinate chicken in half the kecap manis with crushed garlic, 30 minutes.

2. 2

   Blend peanut butter, shallot, chili, remaining kecap and hot water into a pourable sauce.

3. 3

   Thread skewers tight and grill over high heat, brushing with marinade, 10–12 minutes.

   💡 A little char is mandatory — pale satay is a contradiction.

4. 4

   Flood with peanut sauce, finish with lime.
