2tablespooncrunchy peanut butter
1/2cupsoy sauce
1/2cuplime juice, freshly squeezed
2eachgarlic cloves, minced
1chile peppers, dried, crushed
  ------
6eachchicken breast halves, boned, skinned, and cut into 1/2 inch wide strips
  ---PEANUT SAUCE---
2/3cupcrunchy peanut butter
1 1/2cupcoconut milk, unsweetened
1/4cuplemon juice, freshly squeezed
2tablespoonsoy sauce
2tablespoonmolasses (or brown sugar)
1teaspoonginger root, fresh, grated
4eachgarlic cloves, minced
1/4cupchicken broth
1/4cupheavy cream
1cayenne pepper
1lime zest, grated
1cilantro sprigs, fresh

Directions:

To make the marinade, combine the first 7 ingredients in a shallow dish. Thread the chicken strips onto bamboo skewers in a serpentine fashion. Place the skewers into the soy sauce mixture and let marinate in the refrigerator at least 2 hours, although overnight is preferable.

Make the peanut sauce by combining the next 7 ingredients (peanut butter through garlic) in a saucepan. Season to taste with cayenne pepper. Cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce is as thick as heavy cream (about 15 minutes). Transfer to a food processor or blender and puree briefly. Add chicken broth and cream and blend until smooth. This mixture can be made several hours ahead and stored in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature before serving.

Prepare moderate-hot charcoal coals or preheat a broiler. Cook the skewered chicken, turning several times and basting with the marinade, until crispy on the outside but still moist on the inside, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle grilled chicken with lime zest and garnish with cilantro leaves. Serve with the peanut sauce for dipping.
