Who this list is for

How to use this list
Go through the items and see what’s already in your kitchen. Start with 4 pounds of boneless skinless chicken thighs. For the marinade, you’ll need a can of coconut milk, yellow curry powder, ground turmeric, brown sugar, fish sauce, and three limes. For the peanut sauce, gather creamy peanut butter, red curry paste, low-sodium soy sauce, and more lime juice. Don’t forget to pick up 24 bamboo skewers and kosher salt. Marinate the chicken, thread it onto skewers, then grill. Mix the sauce separately for dipping.
What to skip
Don’t use chicken breast instead of thighs—thighs stay juicier on the grill. Skip natural peanut butter if you want a smooth, classic satay sauce. Don’t forget to soak bamboo skewers in water before grilling to prevent burning. Avoid using regular soy sauce if possible; low-sodium keeps the flavors balanced. Don’t add rice or salad to your cart unless you want extra sides.
