| Sharwood's Indonesian Peanut Satay (4lbs) |
The other night I made a large batch of a dish using chicken and the bottled
Sharwood's Indonesian Satay sauce. This product from the UK makes for a quick and tasty dish, much like the
Butter Chicken dish I make. As always, I served with Basmati rice.
The sauce has a very strong flavour so I use 33% more chicken than called for but other than that, this meal is embarrassingly simple. I like it because as a dish it's quick to make, freezes great and the ingredient list doesn't have anything I
cannot pronounce.
- 4 lbs boneless skinless chicken thigh
- 3 jars Sharwood's Indonesian Satay
Trim the bulk of the excess fat off the chicken (save for stock) and cut the thighs into bite-sized pieces. Heat a dash of light tasting olive in your wok or large saucepan and add the chicken. Heat the chicken completely through and reduce heat to a medium-low. Add your 3 jars of sauce and continue heating. The dish is essentially complete at this point, but remember to stir frequently to keep the sauce from burning while heating up the sauce. I bring it just to a simmer which only takes 5 or 10 minutes. Serve with Basmati rice.
The Sharwood's sauce can go on sale, but generally this dish costs $55 in product and results in at least 10 healthy servings for the four of us. That's $5.50 per meal per person, still far cheaper than eating out and it's fast and tasty.
