Chicken Satay with Spicy Peanut Dipping Sauce

 It is super simple to make, only needing a bit of marinating time and then you just throw it
on the grill. The chicken came out nice and tender and light and fresh and it was packed full of flavour! Now I am looking forward to grilling season even more.
