Love exotic dishes but don't want to take the time or buy unusual ingredients? Try this 15-minute p-nut-saucy Fab 'n Fast Paleo Chicken (and other meats and shrimp too) Satay.

FOR THE MEAT:
 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast (or 1/4 pound jumbo raw shrimp, pork tenderlion, or flank steak)
 2 tbsp sweet soy sauce (see all options above)
 1 tsp Sriracha or sambal oeleck sauce
 2 tbsp olive oil
FOR THE SAUCE (5 minutes prep/makes 12 servings):
 ½ cup smooth peanut or other nut butter
 2 tbsp Gluten Free soy or sweet soy sauce
 2 tbsp Lakanto, honey, coconut sugar, or maple syrup
 1 tbsp rice or balsamic vinegar
 1 clove garlic, microplaned or minced
 ½ to 1 tsp Sriracha or sambal oeleck sauce to taste
 3 to 6 Tbsp warm water
FOR THE SATAY:
1

Cut the chicken breast (or pork tenderloin or chop) into 15 or 16 equal-size cubes (around 1" x 1"). Alternately slice the breast into 1" x 6" strips. If using beef, use flank steak and cut across the grain into about 1/4" x 2 (or 3)" x 6" slices. For the shrimp, peel and de-vein, wash, dry with paper towels, and set aside.

2

Mix up the marinade (the other 3 ingredients), place the meat or shrimp into it, and marinate on the kitchen counter for 5 (for chicken or shrimp) or more (up to 15 for beef or pork) minutes.

3

Thread meat on marinated meat on skewers. I used 8" bamboo ones but buy the size that will fit into your air fryer. Thread 3 or 4 pieces meat or shrimp (whatever will fit comfortably on your size skewer) or 1 strip steak or chicken if using.

4

Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees F for chicken (360 degrees for shrimp and steak/400 degrees for pork) for 5 minutes. Air fry chicken and pork for 7 minutes, flip and air fry for an additional 5 minutes. Air fry shrimp and meat for 9 to 10 minutes, flipping once. (Times are approximate ... so get out the instant read thermometer!)

5

Serve with nut sauce, cauliflower rice, and/or salad with the thinned peanut sauce. Eat it UP!

FOR THE SAUCE:
6

While satay is cooking, add all ingredients except water in small bowl. Whisk until well-mixed.

7

Slowly add water 1 Tbsp at a time until desired consistency. If you want to use for a salad dressing, thin out a little more.

8

You can prepare several days in advance and store in the fridge and can be stored for up to 2 or 3 weeks. To reheat, microwave for 20 to 30 seconds or heat and stir over a low heat in a small saucepan until bubbly and smooth. Can be frozen for 4 to 6 months.
