5 Method Steps

Step 1

Combine 2 tablespoons oil, 2 garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon curry powder and the ginger in a shallow glass or ceramic dish. Add the chicken and turn to coat. Cover and place in the fridge for at least one hour to marinate.

Step 2

Heat the remaining oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook the onion, stirring, for 3 minutes or until softened. Add the chilli and the remaining garlic and curry powder and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until aromatic. Stir in the peanut butter, coconut milk and soy sauce. Simmer, stirring, for 2-3 minutes or until thickened slightly. Reserve 2 teaspoons chopped peanuts for serving. Stir the remaining peanuts and the lime juice into the sauce. Set aside, covered to keep warm.

Step 3

Meanwhile, use a spiralizer to cut the zucchini into long noodles or cut the zucchini lengthwise with a vegetable peeler then cut into long strips.

Step 4

Heat a chargrill pan or barbecue over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes each side or until lightly charred and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before thickly slicing.

Step 5

Divide the zucchini ‘noodles’ among bowls. Top with chicken, cucumber and tomatoes then drizzle with the warm satay sauce.
