Difficulty: Easy
Prep time: 40 minutes
Cook time: 8 minutes
Servings: 12 skewers
Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless chicken tenders
- 1 1/2 cups Paula Deen Peanut Butter BBQ Sauce , divided
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup crunchy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro , chopped
- 12 bamboo skewers
Paula Deen Peanut Butter BBQ Sauce
- 1 1/2 cups apple cider vinegar
- 1 to 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 to 2 tablespoons peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- juice of two lemons
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons celery seed
- 2 tablespoons chili powder
- 1/2 stick butter
Directions
Soak the bamboo skewers for 20 minutes in cold water to prevent them from burning; drain. Prepare your grill for direct heat cooking.
Meanwhile, in a small sauce pan combine the remaining Paula Deen Peanut Butter BBQ sauce and peanut butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer until the sauce thickens. Turn the heat down to low and keep the sauce warm.
Drain the chicken; reserve the marinade. Weave 1 chicken tender accordion-style onto each skewer. Brush the chicken with the reserved marinade. Discard the remaining marinade.
Place the skewers on the grill. Grill them uncovered over medium-hot coals for 4 to 6 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink, turning halfway through grilling time. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve with warm peanut sauce for dipping.
