Cooking the Chicken Skewers
Chicken satay is a summertime favourite to cook on the BBQ.

Thai Chicken Satay is a popular starter on Thai restaurants menus along withThai Fish Cakes.
But its also ideal served as a main.
Serve it withsteamed jasmine rice or with fluffyAsian Coconut Rice(its amazing!).
