This is how the chicken satay looked on a plate with a little peanut sauce. The peanut sauce is a little ingredient intensive. I used red onions, garlic, red peppers and ginger sauteed in peanut oil to which I added a splash of fish sauce, a splash of oyster sauce, a drizzle of rice wine vinegar a big drizzle of honey and a heaping tablespoon of peanut butter. I garnished with some red peppers and cilantro resulting in a peanuty, spicy and sweet salty condiment.

Looks great! Those satays look picture perfect. It's just me, but I find Thai peanut sauce a little overpowering for my taste buds!
buff: it isnt just you, I find it to be a little too salty...all the various ingredients have salt...
you had me at chicken but then lost me at peanut butter...I just think that sounds so gross!!! UGH! I can hardly get down a PB&J!!!
I don't love peanut butter, but I love a peanut sauce. That looks terrific.
The sauce sounds delicious, salty, but delicious. I love my noodles in peanut sauce. YUM!
beth: its just a little bit of extra to dip the chicken in, no one said you had to slather it on a hoagie.
kitt: thanks kit...next time I wont follow the recipe so 'close' and see if I can kick it up a bit
claudia: cold sesame noodles are the best....
Mmm peanut sauce. i love love LVOE thai food. i always order the spring rolls, the tom gong khai (?) soup and pad thai. yum.
I'll have it without the peanut sauce I think.. Love the look of the satays!
I could probably eat my weight in this--it look absolutely delicious!! And the plates look cool too. :) For presentation of course, not eating. :P

My daughter can chow down on chicken satay and sticky rice along with pad thai! It's her favorite right there next to French fries and strawberry shortcake! They look beautiful.
aka: you are bringing that girl up right! Kids who are afraid of flavors miss out on so much.
I should not read your blog when I'm hungry!
