Ingredients

4 skinless free-range chicken breasts
200g satay peanut sauce
1 tbsp olive oil
2 pak choi, quartered lengthways
300g pack cooked Thai fragrant rice
2 tbsp coconut milk
A squeeze of lime
Extra lime wedges for squeezing over

Method

Soak 12 small wooden skewers in warm water. Meanwhile, cut the chicken breasts into strips. Place in a bowl with 150g satay peanut sauce and 1 tbsp olive oil, mix and leave to marinate for 10 minutes.
Thread the chicken onto the wooden skewers. Heat a large griddle pan or frying pan, and cook for 8 minutes, until browned on all sides and cooked through.
Meanwhile, steam the pak choi for 5 minutes and warm the rice in the microwave according to the pack instructions.
In a dipping bowl, mix the remaining 50g satay peanut sauce with the coconut milk and a squeeze of lime.
Serve the skewers with the extra sauce, for dipping, steamed pak choi, bowls of Thai fragrant rice, and extra lime wedges for squeezing over.
