👨‍🍳 作り方

1
Prepare the marinade: In a medium bowl, combine the minced lemongrass, turmeric, soy sauce, sugar, vegetable oil, and salt. Mix well until the sugar is dissolved.
⏱️ 5 minutes
2
Marinate the chicken: Add the chicken thigh cubes to the marinade. Toss to coat each piece evenly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate.
⏱️ 3 hours (minimum)
3
Thread the chicken onto skewers: Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator. Thread the chicken pieces onto the soaked bamboo skewers, leaving a small space between each piece for even cooking. Aim for 3-4 pieces per skewer.
⏱️ 15 minutes
4
Preheat grill: Prepare your grill for medium-high heat. If using charcoal, wait until the coals are covered in white ash. If using a gas grill, preheat to approximately 200-230°C (400-450°F).
⏱️ 10 minutes
5
Grill the satay: Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice char marks. Baste with any leftover marinade or a little oil during the last few minutes of grilling.
⏱️ 10-15 minutes
6
Serve: Remove the satay from the grill. Serve immediately with warm peanut sauce, sliced cucumber, and red onion.
⏱️ 2 minutes

💡 プロのコツ

✓For authentic flavor, a charcoal grill imparts a superior smoky taste.
✓Basting the skewers during grilling helps keep them moist and adds extra flavor.
✓Traditionally served with 'ketupat' (compressed rice cakes), which can be a good accompaniment if available.
✓Ensure lemongrass is very finely minced or blended to avoid tough fibrous pieces in the marinade.
