This peanut chicken satay curry is one of my all time favourite recipes for a weekday meal after work. It’s super quick and easy and I’ve even mastered the extra lazy version which involves throwing all the ingredients into a slow cooker!
If you like peanut butter, then you’ll definitely like this recipe. Most chicken satay recipes involve marinade chicken on a skewer with a peanut based sauce but I just find that too much of a faff for an everyday meal so this version is quite weekday friendlier. The creaminess of the coconut milk brings the curry together and makes it super saucy to soak up the rice.
If you’re being really healthy, you could also swap out the rice for cauliflower rice to make this a carb free meal (100% recommend this – it’s delish) and if you want to go the extra mile, you could make your own peanut butter!
