Even though Chicken Satay is one easy recipe, how hard could it be- marinate and grill, but it becomes a bit difficult sometime. Sometime like when my husband fancies a satay in the morning. Cooking chicken satay is easy, but I need a lot of time to prep and marinate the chicken. I hate to disappoint someone I love, so I have to come up with a solution that I can deliver chicken satay at the lightning speed.

And that is the story of how Stir Fried Chicken Satay was born in my house.

With that solution two important gains derived; no need of marinating and succulent slices in ten minutes.

For easy peanut dipping sauce, I sauté Thai red curry paste with peanut butter, add a little coconut milk and season with sugar, vinegar and fish sauce. Nothing can quite compare to glossy, sweet and aromatic sauce drenching in juicy pieces of chicken that still sizzled even after coming out the pan.

So grab your pan because this one is gonna go really fast…
