Esther's Thai Satay Chicken

I happened to ask my son what are some meals he would like for dinner. He had a few suggestions that he really wanted, the first being Satay Chicken. Having not made it before, I felt the pressure on as he is a "real critic" - haha!
So I began to think of some of the ingredients and flavours that I would need and hence came up with this recipe...

 

Ingredients:

To Cook Rice:
2 Cups Basmati Rice
4 Cups water
1 tblsp Olive Oil
1 tblsp SAVEUR Kerala Fried Rice Spice

Optional to add into the rice - Mixed Fresh or Frozen vegetables (I used frozen)


To Cook chicken:
500g Chicken Breast - cut into strips
1 Tblsp SAVEUR THAI MIX
1 tblsp Olive Oil (or other oil of choice)

To Make Satay Sauce:
1 Cup Crunchy Peanut Butter
1 Can Coconut Cream
1 tblsp Sweet Chili Sauce
2 tblsp lemon juice
2 tblsp SAVEUR Satay Spice
2 tsp SAVEUR Chili Spice

  

Method:

Cook Rice:
Place a pot on stove. Add olive oil and rice.
Heat, stirring until white tips form on the rice.
Add water and SAVEUR Kerala Fried Rice Spice.
Bring to a boil, cover and simmer until cooked.
*If adding frozen vegetables, add when there is still some liquid in the pot, cover and continue to cook over low heat for few minutes.
Remove from stove, and fluff with fork.

Cook Chicken:
Mix chicken strips, oil, and SAVEUR THAI MIX.
Add to heated pan, and cook, turning regularly, until golden.
Set aside.

Cook Satay Sauce.
In a pot add Peanut butter and Coconut cream, stir well over low heat until combined. Add all of the rest of the ingredients, continuing to simmer for a few more minutes.
Place all the chicken into the Satay Sauce and stir through.

Serve Chicken over the rice.
Enjoy!

Verdict: 
My biggest critic, my one and only child absolutely loved it! Bonus - Hubby was super impressed too! I will definitely be making this again.
