• Blend remaining 2 tablespoons oil and coconut cream or milk.
• Arrange skewered chicken on charcoal grill or under broiler. Cook 4 to 6 minutes, depending on whether the chicken is to be medium cooked or well done. Turn skewers so that the pieces cook evenly. As chicken cooks, brush generously with oil-coconut oil mixture. Serve with satay sauce as a dip. Serve neatly trimmed pieces of onion and cucumber on the side as accompaniment.

Steps:

• Cut thin (1/4-inch) slices that run the length of the chicken breast (each slice will be 1 inch by 4 inches by 1/4 inch approximately) to get 16 slices.

• Place the chicken strips in a plastic freezer bag.
• Add all the marinating ingredients and gently toss until well mixed.
• Let the chicken marinate in the fridge for at least 2 to 24 hours.

• Baste the chicken with oil or coconut milk and grill on a barbecue or under the broiler.
• Cook for not much more than 2 minutes each side, turning fairly often to prevent unnecessary burning, and baste one more time with oil or coconut milk.

Steps:

• For the satay: Whisk together the coconut milk, vegetable oil, lime juice, brown sugar, ginger, fish sauce, soy sauce, curry powder and garlic in a medium bowl.
• Cut each chicken breast on the diagonal into 6 strips. Flatten the strips to a 1/4-inch thickness with the back of a chef's knife or meat mallet. Put the strips in a large resealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator, at least 2 hours and up to 6 hours.
• For the peanut sauce: Meanwhile, heat the peanut oil in a small saute pan over medium-low heat until hot. Add the onion and jalapeno and cook until softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for 20 seconds. Then add the coconut milk, peanut butter and curry paste. Increase the heat to medium and whisk until the mixture comes together, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat and whisk in the lime juice, soy sauce and fish sauce. If the sauce separates before you are ready to serve, whisk it until it emulsifies and use immediately.
• Preheat a grill for cooking over medium-high heat. Drain the chicken from the marinade and pat it dry. Thread the chicken onto the skewers. Grill, turning once, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly charred in places, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve with the peanut sauce for dipping.

Steps:

• Flatten chicken to 1/4-in. thickness; cut lengthwise into 1-in.-wide strips. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the milk, garlic, brown sugar, seasonings and extract.

• Stir in the coconut milk; bring to a boil and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Be careful not to let it boil over. Add the peanut butter and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce begins to thicken and come together, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to a simmer and add the fish sauce, sugar and rice vinegar. Cook, stirring, until the ingredients are incorporated, about 1 minute more; remove from the heat. An oily film will rise to top; skim it off, if you wish. Keep the sauce warm while you make the chicken satay. (See Cook's Note.)
• Make the Chicken Satay: Place the coconut milk, curry powder, salt, sugar, pepper and garlic powder in a medium bowl; whisk to combine the marinade.
• Slice the chicken against the grain into 2-inch square tiles about 1/4-inch thick. Transfer to the marinade and massage to coat the chicken evenly. You can cover and marinate the chicken overnight in the refrigerator for better flavor and tenderness or cook it immediately.
• Thread the chicken onto the bamboo skewers, stopping 2 inches from the bottom of each skewer.
• Heat a grill or grill pan to high and preheat for at least 5 minutes. Rub a little oil on the grill grates or spray with nonstick cooking spray. Working in batches if necessary, grill the chicken on one side until you get nice char marks, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until the chicken is just cooked through, another 3 to 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Peanut Sauce Heat the oil in a saucepan, and sweat the curry and sugar until the sugar melts and starts to caramelize.

• Stir in the peanuts, and season with soy sauce.
• Spice Paste In a blender, purée the shallots, peanuts, coriander, and cumin into a paste, then add the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth.
• Skewers Cut the chicken into strips 1 inch wide, 3 to 4 inches long, and at least 1/4 inch thick, and thread onto skewers.
• Coat the chicken with spice paste, and season with salt and pepper.
• Heat the grill to medium-high, and cook until lightly charred on one side, then turn to cook other side.
• Do not overcook, or the chicken will become rubbery.
• Serve with peanut sauce.

Steps:

• Soak 15 wooden skewers in water.
• In a large plastic bag, combine all ingredients and toss to coat.
• Close bag and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Remove chicken from marinade, discard remaining marinade.
• Thread chicken strips onto skewers, threading back and forth.
• Grill or broil chicken until no longer pink.
• Serve with your favorite dipping sauces!

Steps:

• KIDS the writing in bold is for you. GROWN-UPS the rest is for you. Make a yummy marinade. Peel the ginger and help them to finely grate it and tip it into a bowl. Repeat with the garlic and lime zest. Halve the lime and get your child to juice it, then mix it in a bowl with the honey, soy, curry powder and peanut butter. Get them to give it a good mix, adding a small splash of water if it's too stiff, then help them spoon two-thirds of the mix into a small pan. Set aside for Step 4.
• Now for some chicken bashing! Put the chicken in the sandwich bag, one breast at a time, getting your child to flatten each one with a rolling pin or a meat mallet - this isn't essential, but they like doing it.
• Mix the chicken with the marinade you made. Cut the chicken into strips, tip it into the remaining third of the peanut-butter mix, then get your child to stir well. Cover with cling film and chill until required. This can be done up to 3 hrs ahead.
• Cook your tasty sauce. While the chicken is marinating, pour the coconut milk into the pan and get your child to stir together with the peanut butter mix. The sauce needs to be heated gently and stirred - suitable for confident seven- or eight-year olds, under strict adult supervision.
• 'Sew' the chicken onto the skewers. The chicken needs to be threaded into 'S' shapes onto the skewers. Get your child to thread the skewers away from themselves, being careful of the sharp points. Younger ones might find this a little fiddly, so they could just push on small chunks.
• Paint the tray with oil and cook the chicken. Heat the grill to high and get your child to brush a baking tray with oil. They can then line up the skewers on the tray. Grill the skewers for about 10 mins, turning occasionally, until lightly charred.
• Make cucumber ribbons with a peeler. Using a swivel-blade peeler, get your child to peel the cucumber into a bowl, then carry on peeling the cucumber flesh into ribbons until they get to the seeds. Repeat with each side of the cucumber.
• Mix a dressing for the cucumber. Get your child to mix the vinegar and sugar until the sugar dissolves - explain what dissolves means. Add the sweet chilli, if using, then pour over the cucumber. Add coriander if your child likes it, or serve on the side for the grown-ups. To serve, put the skewers on a platter, the sauce and salad in bowls, and serve with rice and lime wedges on the side.
