A note for lulu_ting: Why on earth did you bother reviewing this and giving it a five-star rating? It's as if someone were to review a recipe for home-made tomato soup and wrote "I didn't have any of the ingredients but I did have a can of Campbells Tomato soup on hand so I cooked that and it was delicious. Maybe next time I'll make this recipe as written."
Now that I've gotten that off my chest I will say that Bobby's recipe was delicious and approachable. I have made far more complicated satay recipes containing ingredients such as galanga, kaffir lime leaves, palm sugar, tamarind paste, and lemon grass. It was a pain in the butt to find everything and put it all together. Bobby's satay gives a similar flavor profile without all the muss and fuss. Meat was tender and juicy with a lovely hint of peanutty goodness. Will definitely make again

This dish was absolutely delicious. I used low sodium soy and reduced fat peanut butter and definitely don't miss any flavor. Great recipe to impress guests!

This marinade is FANTASTIC! Within a week I've used it on pork butt roast (cut up, pork loin chops and another pork roast because my family loves it so much! I skipped the spice in the marinade (for my kids but added it to the sauce and it's such a great flavor! I love the sauce so much, I've used it cold as a sandwich spread! Great, bold, Thai flavors! Love it! Thanks Bobby!!!
