Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon sriracha, optional
  • 1 tablespoon water

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine chicken cubes with soy sauce, honey, lime juice, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes (if using). Toss well to coat all pieces evenly. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours in the refrigerator for more flavor.
  2. In a saucepan, combine jasmine rice with coconut milk, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
  3. Thread marinated chicken onto skewers. Preheat your grill over medium heat. Grill each skewer for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are cooked through and have nice grill marks.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, honey, sriracha (if using), and water until you achieve a smooth consistency.
  5. Serve grilled chicken skewers over a bed of fluffy coconut rice. Drizzle generously with peanut sauce before enjoying your delicious meal!
