This is a lot of fish sauce and it smelled and tasted fishy. We enjoyed the recipe (which I made as directed) but if I make it again, will reduce the fish sauce significantly.

The flavor was great, but we didn't like the chunky texture of the sauce. Next time I'll swap out the shallots for a bit of onion powder and will use smooth PB.

Excellent as is. I also made this with a few adjustments inspired by peanut sauce II such as substituting honey for brown sugar, and adding some basil at the end and it was good, though I'm not sure if better. I think that using peanut butter made of only peanuts (yes it exists) will produce the best quality sauce.

These were great. Cooked them over charcoal and the flavour was extra smokey. Peanut sauce is delicious with pork too.

This recipe is great. I was very impressed with how good the chicken was. I was skeptical of the marinade but it was perfect. The sauce needs to be finished "to taste". Mine needed more red pepper (I used a 'saracha' red chili sauce), soy sauce, and lime juice. I also ran mine through a processor to make it smooth. We had it for "picky" company and they like it. Served with steamed broccoli and lightly curried rice.

I only used the marinade on chicken, but it was lovely and SIMPLE. Fish sauce does *stink,* but it adds a great flavor to grilled chicken.

I went to high school in Thailand and chicken satay is a favorite. I don't have an outdoor grill so I just grilled the strips on the George Foreman. They weren't very pretty so at first I thought "oh no this isn't going to be REAL satay," but the flavor was actually quite good - a little too salty, but good. The peanut sauce was not entirely authentic tasting, but it was very very good, and we all enjoyed it. It's VERY close to another chicken/peanut sauce/rice recipe that I have that we all love. Really nice. The sauce makes a LOT so I tossed the extra with hot pasta, a few additional "saucy" ingredients, green onions, and peanuts, and served the chicken with that. Will make again!

This review is for the chicken only - I used a different peanut sauce recipe (coconut allergy). The chicken was wonderful - I was a little skeptical, but overall very happy with the dish - I marinated for about 2 hours. The chicken was moist and had fantastic flavor.
