Chicken Satay Spicy Peanut Sauce 

Delicious Chicken Satay with Spicy Peanut Sauce for #SundaySupper!! Grilled to perfection and topped with a sweet and spicy Korean gochujang sauce, you need to try this recipe!

Ever since watching Todd and Diane’s (White On Rice Couple) photography and food styling workshop on CreativeLive.com, I’ve been playing around with my camera and my natural light. .  trying to manipulate it and use it to my advantage. .

Because up until this point, I was always shooting with my natural light coming in from 3 o’clock (side light) and never tried it with back light (light coming in from 12 o’clock, behind my food or whatever I was shooting). So, here’s my chicken satay skewers with back light.

It’s too much light but just wanted to show you how much difference it makes. .  I’m no expert and just still trying to learn as much as I can. Todd and Diane’s workshop, which I watched for free online the first day for a few hours, really opened my eyes to a lot.

And I realized, and my friend Allie mentioned this to me too, that the back light shooting doesn’t always work for everything. .  but it actually works really well for translucent foods like popsicles or drinks or cocktails. (Note to self for my next cocktail recipe).

So, let’s get to this recipe! Today for Sunday Supper we’re celebrating MAN FOOD!

Ok, ok, I know what you’re thinking ..  chicken satay? . .  man food. .  huh? Well, let me just tell you. . here in our house, anything that is grilled to perfection and has grill marks is deemed man food. Period.

And because we used chicken thigh meat instead of chicken breast, my husband loved this. Like freakin’ licked his fingers this was so good.

And the spicy peanut sauce I made didn’t hurt. We loved this sauce!!!

The inspiration for this recipe (and the recipe itself!) came from the very talented Amy Lee Scott from Club Narwhal and her Thai Chicken Satay Noodle Salad. If you’ve never visited her blog, you need to. Like right now. She’s awesome and super talented.

The only thing I did differently was add a little heat (gochujang; Korean hot pepper paste) and changed up the portions a bit for the marinade and sauce. And I’m not even going to touch Amy’s Thai Chicken Satay Noodle salad y’all because this is perfection.

I ate this with noodles, my husband threw everything into a tortilla (down below) and the following day, I had some with white rice. Delicious and so versatile! So, I will leave you with a few more photos.  . .  as I was playing around with the back light thing, I also switched colors and food items and shot this with corn instead of the chicken. I have no idea if the exposure is right. .  I just love all the colors!

Chicken Satay Spicy Peanut Sauce

RECIPE:  Click here for Amy’s recipe. If you want to make it spicy and want to try the gochujang, simply whisk together the following and add to the leftover marinade sauce, which is also your dressing (Amy notes “you will use 1/3 of sauce mixture to marinate the chicken and the rest to dress the salad. Divide into two separate containers/baggies so the raw chicken doesn’t contaminate the dressing.”)

  • 1-2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1/4 cup gochujang; Korean hot pepper paste
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil + more if needed
  • 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons honey

Enjoy!!

So, here’s the spicy chicken tacos my husband made (side light). Messy but soooooo good with the spicy gochujang peanut sauce. I ate one too.
