Report

Make this special Satay by baking all in one tray and let it bake away while you get on with other things. All you need to do is add rice or noodles to serve. This recipe uses Australian cup measurements

Instructions

Set the oven to 180 C/ 350 F

Satay sauce base

Put the soy sauce, sweet soy, coconut milk, peanut butter, ginger, garlic, stock, lemon, tamarind and the finely chopped roots and stems and some leaves of the coriander in a large bowl. Reserve some of the leaves to garnish and serve. Stir well to combine all the ingredients. ( It's kind of like a big satay milkshake)
Put the chicken drumsticks into large baking dish that holds them in a single layer (and if using boneless thighs do the same)
Pour the sauce over the chicken and turn the chicken over a bit to coat it. Sprinkle with salt.
Bake the drumsticks uncovered for an hour (60 min) or till cooked through when pricked with a fork. Fillets will take a shorter time - around 40 minutes
Serve with coriander leavea and rice or noodles.

Notes

You can add chopped roasted peanuts and a dollop of thick chilled coconut cream to each serve
You can roast a whole chicken in this mixture too. The chicken should be seasoned and rubbed with some oil after rolling in the starter sauce. The whole chicken will take a little longer but it makes a great dish for the middle of a table. test the inside of the legs to make sure the chicken is cooked through. it will take about 1- 1 1/2 hours
