Pork Satay with Homemade Peanut Sauce
My first Bobby Flay recipe, and it did NOT disappoint! Everyone loved this dish, and it came together relatively easily, despite a few ingredients I never have handy (coconut milk & thai peppers).
This was great to have for a party, we served these with homemade crab rangoon.
Recipe
Serves 4-6, with lots of leftover sauce!
Ingredients
Marinade:
- 1 1/2 cups coconut milk
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 Thai chile pepper, seeded and finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons cilantro
- Salt
- 1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin, cut into 1-inch thick cubes
- Wooden skewers
Directions
Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl, add pork and let marinate 2 to 4 hours.
Sauce:
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 Thai red chile pepper, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 1/2 cups coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 cup chunky peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro
Heat the oil in a skillet and add the onion, garlic and chili. Saute for about 4 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce, lime juice, coconut milk, coriander, and cumin. Thoroughly blend the peanut butter into the mixture. Bring the sauce to a simmer over low heat, stirring frequently. Stir in the cilantro and remove from the heat.
Preheat the grill.
Remove the pork from the marinade and thread on skewers. Grill for 7 to 8 minutes or until cooked through. Serve with the sauce.
