Chicken Satay



Chicken Satay

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons salted, roasted peanuts
 1/4 cup peanut oil
6 scallions, trimmed
Zest of lemon, removed in strips.

Cut chicken breast halves lengthwise into long strips, about 5 from each. Place in a freezer storage bag, and set aside.
In a food processor, combine all remaining ingredients. Process to make a smooth paste. Add to bag of chicken, seal bag, and mix well so that chicken is well coated. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

About an hour before cooking, soak 10 bamboo skewers in water. Heat a grill or broiler. Thread two long strips of chicken onto each skewer. Grill or broil until lightly browned and crisp on edges.
