Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 boneless chicken breasts
1/4 cup lime juice (or lemon)
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons curry powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup smooth peanut butter
1/3 cup water
1 clove garlic
2 tablespoons lime juice (or lemon)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

Cut the chicken lengthwise into 1/4 inch (1/2 cm) strips- you'll get about 4 or 5 strips from each breast.
Thread these strips zigzag fashion onto bamboo skewers, about 3 or 4 strips per skewer.
Don't squash the zigzags too tightly- leave them loosely threaded so the marinade can soak in.
Arrange the skewers in a glass baking dish.
In a small bowl, combine the marinade ingredients& pour over the chicken skewers in the baking dish; allow to marinate, refrigerated, for at least one hour, but no longer than three or else the chicken will disintegrate.
Meanwhile, make the dipping sauce.
In a blender combine all the sauce ingredients and blend until completely smooth.
Pour into a small bowl.
Preheat the barbecue, then grill chicken skewers over medium heat, brushing lightly with the marinade, about 5 minutes per side.
The chicken should be cooked through but not dried out.
