Directions:Preheat a grill to medium-high
and brush grates with oil.
Marinate chicken: In a small
food processor, blend all marinade ingredients until smooth. Pour into bowl, add chicken and toss to coat. Set aside for 15 minutes. (MAKE AHEAD: Marinate chicken up to 1 day ahead; cover and refrigerate.)
Prepare sauce: In a small saucepan on medium, heat 2 tsp
oil. Add cashews, garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 1 minute. Whisk in 1/2 cup water, 1/3 cup coconut milk, cashew butter, 2 tbsp coconut sugar, 1 tbsp garlic chile sauce and soy sauce.
Bring to a simmer then reduce
heat to low and simmer until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tbsp lime
juice. Set aside.
Thread chicken onto skewers, discarding remaining marinade.
Grill chicken until no longer pink inside, flipping once, 3 minutes per side. Serve with sauce. |

Notes: This easy skewered chicken with
an Asian-inspired cashew sauce will become a staple in your household throughout the summer – you can marinate the chicken the night before and just throw it on the grill when you get home. Try it with a side of brown rice or quinoa sprinkled with
chopped cilantro.
