Title: Peanut Butter Chicken Skewers - Low Carb
Categories: Chicken, Grill, Nuts, Dairy
Yield: 4 Servings
1/2 c Creamy peanut butter
1/2 c Water
1/4 c Soy sauce
4 Garlic cloves, minced
3 tb Lemon juice
1 1/2 tb Brown sugar twin, or
Splenda
3/4 ts Ground ginger
1/2 ts Crushed red pepper flakes
4 Boneless skinless chicken
Breast halves
2 c Shredded red cabbage
Sliced green onion tops
In a saucepan, combine the first eight ingredients; cook and stir over
medium-high heat for 5 minutes or until smooth. Reserve half of the
sauce.
Slice chicken lengthwise into 1-in. strips; thread onto skewers
(if using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for at least 20
minutes). Grill, uncovered, over medium-hot coals for 2 minutes;
turn and brush with peanut butter sauce. Continue turning and
basting for 4-6 minutes or until juices run clear. Place cabbage
on a serving plate; top with chicken. Sprinkle with onion tops.
Serve with reserved sauce.
This is what I did:
I used 5 chicken breast halves and cut them into strips. I cooked
them quickly in a non stick pan, in two batches. At the same time
I was slowly cooking the sauce ingredients in a pot. I used 2 TBS
bottled minced garlic.1/2 tsp. pepper flakes were not enough. Next
time I will more than double. I used 1 1/2 TBS brown sugar twin in
place of the sugar. If you don't have that, splenda will probably
do. I omitted the ginger, we don't like it.
When the chicken was done and the sauce was melted, I added the
sauce along with the first batch of chicken back into the non
stick pan. I added one can of baby corn cut up and a can of sliced
water chestnuts. They didn't add too many carbs for us and my
daughter loves them. I needed to add about an extra 1/4 or 1/2 cup
more water to thin the sauce to how I liked it.
