Red Ginger Chicken Satay

Ingredients

• 16 bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
• 2 pound(s) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into cubes
• 6 tablespoon(s) creamy peanut butter
• 2 teaspoon(s) finely chopped ginger
• 2 clove(s) garlic, chopped
• 1 cup(s) pineapple juice
• 2 teaspoon(s) red-wine vinegar
• 2 seedless cucumbers, peeled and sliced
• Sliced tomatoes, lime wedges, cilantro and crushed red pepper
• 1 tablespoon(s) sugar

Preparation

1. 1. In a large bowl, mix together garlic, pineapple juice, sugar, ginger, peanut butter and vinegar. Set aside one-fourth of the mixture, then marinate the chicken cubes in remaining three-fourths of the ginger mixture for about 30 minutes.
2. 2. Thread marinated chicken onto skewers. Heat a grill, grill pan or broiler on high heat. Cook skewers, turning occasionally, about 8 minutes, or just until chicken is cooked through. Remove from heat.
3. 3. Meanwhile, toss sliced cucumber with reserved ginger mixture. Place a portion of cucumber on each of 4 plates. Place chicken on top and serve with tomatoes, lime wedges, cilantro and crushed red pepper if desired.
