8 Chicken Thigh Fillets (sliced into thin strips or medium chunks)
1 large Onion (finely chopped)
2 cloves Garlic (crushed)
50 gms Butter
1 1/2 cups Chicken Stock
1/2 cup Crunchy Peanut Butter
1/2 cup Honey
good pinch Ground Cardamom
4 heaped teaspoons Wholegrain Mustard
2 teaspoons Dry Curry Powder
good splash Tabasco Sauce (or good sprinkle chilli powder)

Method

Remove fat & skin from chicken & cut into bite-sized pieces or thin strips.
Combine finely chopped onion, butter and garlic, and cook on high in microwave for 3 minutes. Stir in peanut butter, chicken stock. honey, mustard, curry powder, cardamom & Tabasco/chilli, and mix until well combined.
Add chicken & mix well, ensuring all chicken is coated with sauce, and there are no lumps in the sauce. Cook on high for 6 minutes, stir well, then cook for further 6 minutes on high.
Serve with steamed rice, salad and some crunchy fresh bread rolls to mop up the sauce.

This sounds like an appealing variation on satay chicken. I do like a good satay – it’s a nice simple meal and one that doesn’t need many extras. The only thing is that I have to be careful to remember not to let it go to school as a leftovers lunch!

I’ve just printed it out to give this a try. I’ve been wanting to make one from scratch instead of jars or packets of sauces. Thankyou.
