Instructions

1. Place all the marinade ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
2. Coat the chicken with the marinade and allow to rest for ideally 2 hours or overnight.
3. If youre in a rush you can use it straight away.
4. The flavour just tastes better if you let the flavours absorb into the chicken.
5. If BBQing thread the chicken thighs onto skewers and grill for approximately 40 - 50 minutes on a medium heat so they dont burn on the outside, turning regularly, until thoroughly cooked through.
6. Alternatively you can cook in the oven (200 °C/ 400 °F fan assisted) for about 25 - 30 minutes, turning half way through to ensure even cooking, or in a griddle pan.
7. If using wooden skewers, soak them for 20 minutes in water first to make sure the sticks dont burn.
8. For the Keto satay sauce, finely dice the chilli.
9. Add all the satay ingredients to a small bowl and mix well.
10. Taste and adjust the seasoning and spicing to your liking.
11. Serve the chicken skewers with a drizzle of satay sauce and top with a sprinkling of chopped fresh parsley and a touch more lime if you fancy.
12. Try with Easy Summer Vegetable Salsa or
