Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Thread chicken cubes onto skewers, leaving 1/4 inch between pieces. Pat dry with paper towels.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a grill pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until a drop of water sizzles on contact.

  3. Step 3

    Lay skewers on the pan without moving for 3 minutes. Flip once, cook 2–3 minutes more until golden and cooked through.

  4. Step 4

    Whisk peanut butter, coconut milk, 2 tbsp sriracha, lime juice, and brown sugar in a bowl until smooth and glossy.

  5. Step 5

    Combine remaining 1 tbsp sriracha with 2 tbsp water in a small bowl for a thin chili dipping sauce.

  6. Step 6

    Serve skewers with peanut sauce for dipping and chili sauce on the side.
