My kids will eat pretty much anything on a skewer. Maybe it’s a boy thing (they tend to be drawn to sharp objects that can double as weapons) or maybe it’s because they get to eat with their hands, but it certainly is a sure fire way to get them to try new foods and eat their dinner! These chicken skewers will definitely be gobbled up quickly. Who doesn’t love perfectly seasoned coconut curry chicken dipped in a sweet and salty peanut sauce? They are also a great appetizer for a cocktail party or potluck. Enjoy!
