…Chicken Satay – It’s What’s For Dinner!
Dinner you say? Isn’t Chicken Satay an appetizer at a Thai restaurant?
Why, yes. Yes it is. It’s also one of my husband’s favorite dishes! When asked what he would like for his birthday meal, this has been his answer two years running. So how do you have your favorite appetizer for dinner? You turn it into an entree!
Satay is simply a grilled, marinated meat that is very common through out southeast Asia. It is usually served on a skewer with a peanut dipping sauce and sometimes a cucumber and onion salad.
What makes it so special is that it just explodes with complementary flavors and textures. The meat is first marinated in a coconut and curry mixture and then grilled to perfection. The peanut sauce is creamy and slightly sweet with a hint of salty heat and a light crunch. The cool texture of the cucumbers and onions adds a crunchy bite of sweet heat that enhances every mouthful.

…This Simple Turkey and Chicken Brine is so easy and will make your bird ridiculously moist and flavorful!
Why brine you might ask?
The process of soaking a turkey or chicken, or many other kinds of meat, in a salt water and herb solution causes the meat to become infused with seasoned, flavorful moisture that will be retained along with it’s own natural juices through-out the cooking process. The leaner cuts, like the breast will always be more moist and juicy and have more flavor then if they were not brined.
