My kids cannot resist these tender, juicy Asian-inspired chicken skewers. The combination of ginger, cardamom, and curry, sweetened by brown sugar, is sweet, savory, and bold! Serve them with a side of peanut coconut sauce and your taste buds will thank you.

Place the chicken in a medium bowl. Whisk all the marinade ingredients together in a separate bowl. Pour the marinade over the chicken and massage the meat with your hands for 1 minute to coat the cubes well. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or as long as overnight.
Spray a grill rack with nonstick cooking spray and set the heat to high or use a grill pan. Thread 6 to 8 chicken cubes onto each skewer. When the grill is ready, cook the chicken for 8 to 10 minutes, turning the skewers over halfway through. Remove the skewers from the grill and allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the Peanut Coconut Sauce alongside.
Variations: Cubes of top sirloin beef or pork loin can be substituted for the chicken.
Combine the coconut milk, peanut butter, brown sugar, soy sauce, and red curry paste in a saucepan and cook over medium heat for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cook's note: Use this sauce over grilled meat, vegetables, steamed rice, or your favorite pasta dish. It will keep for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
Note: Chaokoh brand coconut milk works the best with this recipe because of its higher fat content, making for a thick and creamy sauce.
Yield: Makes almost 2 cups

Made this recipe for NYE party. Big hit! Did not have cardamom, but it was great anyway. Do marinate for at least 3 hours. I cooked on outdoor grill and just make sure you do not over cook.
They are tasty even without the dipping sauce and low in fat.

Delicious! Wonderful new way to cook chicken! I was only able to marinate the chicken for three hours so I did need to salt it to suit my taste, but perhaps that wouldn't be the case if I were able to marinate overnight.
Super tasty, easy to make and my husband raved over them! I will definitely make again.
Might want to try with chicken thighs because breasts can be tricky to cook without making them dry...however, if you watch them carefully, it can be done... :
Thanks for the great recipe! :
