Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Cut chicken breasts into 1-inch-thick strips. Pat dry with paper towels.

  2. Step 2

    Whisk peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, sriracha, and coconut milk in a bowl until smooth.

  3. Step 3

    Thread chicken strips onto skewers, leaving a 1/2-inch gap between pieces.

  4. Step 4

    Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 60 seconds.

  5. Step 5

    Sear skewers 3 minutes per side without moving until golden and cooked through (165°F internal).

  6. Step 6

    Brush peanut sauce over skewers during the last 30 seconds of cooking. Serve hot with extra sauce.
