Chicken Satay with Almond Sauce
Serves 4
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
1/2 cup fat-free milk
4 tablespoons almond butter
1 teaspoon chopped fresh ginger
1 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey or honey substitute
2 tablespoons chopped scallions, optional
Salt and pepper, to taste
Wood skewers soaked in water
* Combine all ingredients except chicken in a saucepan over medium heat.
* Continue stirring until sauce thickens, about 15 minutes.
* Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally to make thin, flat slabs, then cut them into strips three to four inches long by one inch wide.
* Preheat a gas grill or a broiler.
* Grill or broil the sticks of satay (like kebabs) until cooked, turning once or twice, about 3-4 minutes total.
* Serve with almond sauce for dipping; sauce can be served hot or room temperature.
