Ingredients

Ingredients for Your Satay:

½ Cup Coconut Milk Unsweetened Variety
3 tablespoons Soy Sauce Your Favorite Kind
3 tablespoons Lime Juice Fresh
1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar Light and Packed
1 Tablespoon Garlic Minced
1 Tablespoon Ginger Fresh and Minced
1 teaspoon Curry Powdered Variety
1 teaspoon Cilantro Fresh and Dried
1 ½ Pounds Pork Chops Boneless Variety

Ingredients for Your Sauce:

½ Cup Peanut Butter Creamy Variety
½ Cup Water Warm
¼ Cup Coconut Milk Unsweetened Variety
2 tablespoons Garlic Minced

2 tablespoons Brown Sugar Dark and Packed
2 tablespoons Lime Juice Fresh
2 teaspoons Vinegar Rice Variety
1 Tablespoon Soy Sauce Your Favorite Kind
1 teaspoon Curry Powdered Variety
3 Candy Bars Peanut Variety and Crunchy

Instructions

The first thing that you are going to want to do is make your satay. To do that use a medium sized bowl and add in your unsweetened coconut milk, favorite kind of soy sauce, fresh lime juice, dark brown sugar, minced garlic, minced ginger, powdered curry and fresh cilantro. Stir to combine.
Add your pork chops onto a flat surface and pound until thin to the touch. Cut into thin sliced strips and place into your dish with your mixture. Toss to coat. Cover with a sheet of plastic and place into your fridge to chill for the next 2 hours.
During this time make your sauce. To do this add all of your ingredients into a medium sized bowl except for your candy bars. Stir thoroughly until smooth in consistency. Place your candy bars into a serving plate and crumble finely.
Remove your pork from your marinade and pat dry with a paper towel. Thread your pork pieces onto metallic skewers. Place onto a preheat grill set to high heat and grill for the next 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
Serve your pork with your sauce and peanut style candy bars. Dip your meat into your sauce and roll in your candy bar. Serve whenever you are ready.

Notes

The satay sauce contains peanuts, shallots, and peanuts. The pork should be marinated for about 10 minutes before serving. In order to make the peanut sauce, you need a medium frying pan. You should add the kecap manis and kecap saft to the sauce. Using a non-stick pan will ensure the sauce's consistency is smooth and creamy.

Grilled Peanut Brittle Pork Satay Smothered

Ingredients:

1 pound pork loin, cut into thin strips
1/2 cup peanut brittle crumbs
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ginger, grated
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
Wooden skewers, soaked in water

Instructions:

In a bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes. This will be your marinade.
Thread the pork strips onto the wooden skewers, ensuring they are secure but not too tightly packed.
Place the pork skewers in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the pork is well coated. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes, turning occasionally.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grates with a bit of oil to prevent sticking.
Remove the pork skewers from the marinade, letting excess liquid drip off.
Coat each pork skewer generously with peanut brittle crumbs, pressing them on to adhere.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the pork is cooked through and has grill marks.
While grilling, you can brush on any leftover marinade for extra flavor.
Once the pork skewers are cooked to perfection, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
Serve your “Peanut Brittle Pork Satay Smothered” with your choice of dipping sauce or as part of a larger meal.

Tips for making Peanut Brittle Pork Satay Smothered

Serving Suggestions

Dipping Delight: Offer a selection of dipping sauces, such as a classic peanut sauce, sweet chili sauce, or a refreshing cucumber yogurt dip. These condiments will complement the rich and savory flavors of the dish.
Vibrant Veggies: Pair the satay with a crisp and colorful salad. A mix of fresh greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion with a light vinaigrette is a refreshing choice.
Fluffy Rice: Serve the satay over a bed of fragrant jasmine rice or alongside some coconut-infused rice for a satisfying and balanced meal.
Grilled Pineapple: For a tropical twist, grill pineapple slices alongside your satay. The sweetness of the pineapple pairs beautifully with the smoky grilled flavors.
Thai Iced Tea: Accompany the meal with a chilled glass of Thai iced tea or a tropical fruit punch for a refreshing contrast to the savory satay.

Cooking Tips

Marinating Magic: Allow the pork to marinate for at least 30 minutes. The longer it marinates, the more flavor it will absorb. If possible, marinate it for a few hours or even overnight for the best results.
Grill Prep: Preheat your grill and oil the grates to prevent the pork from sticking. Make sure the grill is at medium-high heat for a nice sear.
Even Skewering: Thread the pork strips onto the skewers evenly to ensure they cook uniformly. Don’t overcrowd the skewers; leave a little space between the pieces.
Peanut Brittle Coating: When applying the peanut brittle crumbs to the pork, gently press them on to create a satisfying crunch. You can coat the pork more than once for an extra layer of flavor.
Rest and Serve: After grilling, let the satay rest for a couple of minutes before serving. This helps the juices redistribute and keeps the meat tender.
