Steps:
- Put 30 to 36 wooden skewers in bowl or other container and add cold water to cover. Let soak one hour or longer.
- Preheat charcoal grill or kitchen broiler.
- Cut chicken meat into 1/2-inch cubes. There should be about 2 1/2 cups. Put cubes in a bowl.
- Sprinkle chicken with coriander, cumin, fennel, pepper and turmeric. Set aside.
- Put pieces of fresh lemon grass or lemon grass powder, shallots, garlic and water in the container of an electric blender and blend thoroughly.
- Pour and scrape this mixture over the chicken and mix together with the fingers. Add sugar, salt and Worcestershire sauce and blend. Set aside for one hour.
- Add one tablespoon of the oil and blend well.
- Drain skewers and thread 4 to 6 pieces of chicken, arranging them quite close together, on each skewer.
- 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.
