Christinas Peanut Brittle Pork Satay With Peanut Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Mix first 9 ingredients in resealable plastic bag. Add ribs. Seal bag; turn to coat ribs with marinade. Chill overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line large roasting pan with long piece of foil, overlapping each short side by 10 inches. Place ribs and marinade on foil in pan. Spoon some marinade over ribs. Fold foil over, enclosing ribs loosely in foil. Bake until ribs are tender, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool ribs slightly. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Keep ribs enclosed in foil in pan and refrigerate.)
• Prepare barbecue (medium heat) or preheat broiler. Unwrap ribs. Using tongs, transfer ribs to work surface. Cut rib sections between bones into individual ribs. If broiling, place ribs on baking sheet. Grill or broil ribs until well browned, about 3 minutes per side.
• Place ribs on platter. Arrange vegetables and Peanut Sauce alongside.

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:

• To make the satay: Combine all ingredients except the pork and pour into a shallow, nonreactive dish. Cut the pork tenderloins across into 2-inch-thick pieces. Pound each piece until very thin and even. Place in the dish and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours and up to 24 hours.
• To make the sauce: Stir all ingredients except peanut crunch candy bar and pretzels until smooth. Place in a serving bowl. Combine peanut crunch candy bar and pretzels and place in a separate serving bowl.
• Remove the pork from the marinade, pat dry and cut into 1 1/2-inch thick strips. Thread onto the skewers. Light a grill or heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the skewers until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Serve immediately, with the sauce for dipping. Have guests first dip satay in sauce and then in crunch bar and pretzels.

Steps:

• Prepare the skewers: Put pork in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, stir together shallot, garlic, ginger, lemongrass, cumin, coriander, turmeric, cayenne, fish sauce, lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar and coconut milk, and pour over meat. Toss with your hands to coat well. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight. Meanwhile, soak 12 bamboo skewers in water.
• Prepare the cucumbers: Put cucumbers in a mixing bowl and season with salt. Add lime juice, sugar, shallots and chiles and toss to coat. Let stand for 15 minutes. Check seasoning, then transfer to a serving dish.
• Prepare the peanut sauce: Pulse the peanuts briefly in a food processor just until finely ground. Add the garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, fish sauce, lime juice, cayenne and coconut milk, and process until well puréed. Transfer to a bowl, then taste and adjust seasoning. Thin a bit with lime juice or water as desired.
• Thread 2 slices of pork onto each bamboo skewer, keeping the meat as flat as possible. Grill over hot coals, under the broiler or on a stovetop grill pan for 3 minutes on each side, until cooked through and lightly browned. Transfer to a platter and garnish with cilantro and basil leaves. Serve with cucumber relish and peanut sauce.

Steps:

• Combine the yogurt, ginger, garlic, and curry powder in a shallow mixing bowl, stir to combine. Place the chicken strips in the yogurt marinade and gently toss until well coated. Cover and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at up to 2 hours.
• Thread the chicken pieces onto the soaked skewers working the skewer in and out of the meat, down the middle of the piece, so that it stays in place during grilling. Place a grill pan over medium heat and brush it with oil to prevent the meat from sticking. Grill the chicken satays for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, until nicely seared and cooked through. Serve the satays on a platter lined with lettuce leaves and cilantro; accompanied by a small bowl of peanut sauce on the side.
• Combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, red chili paste, brown sugar, and lime juice in a food processor or blender. Puree to combine. While the motor is running, drizzle in the hot water to thin out the sauce, you may not need all of it. Pour the sauce into a nice serving bowl and garnish with the chopped peanuts. Serve with chicken satay.

Steps:

• Combine all marinade ingredients in food processor or blender and puree. Set aside.
• Cut pork into 6-inch lengths and slice each length into 1/2-inch long strips. Thread pork strips onto bamboo skewers.
• Place skewers into 9x13-inch pan (or a zipper bag) and pour marinade over all. Turn skewers to ensure they are evenly coated. Cover, refrigerate and marinate for 2 to 3 hours.
• Grill pork for 2 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
• Peanut Lime Sauce:.
• Put peanut butter in a medium size bowl. Slowly whisk in remaining ingredients. The peanut butter will "seize" after each liquid addition, but keep whisking and it will smooth out.
