This is a super quick and easy satay sauce. I have used my nut butter rather than peanut butter as peanuts are not considered paleo because they are actually a legume not a nut!? GASP!! I know! Outrageous right! Well it’s true. If you love peanuts, feel free to use a natural crunchy peanut butter in place of the nut butter, just make sure it’s not full of crap.
1/2 small onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 red chilli, finely chopped
1/2 cup nut butter- I used almond & sunflower butter
1 cup coconut milk
1 tbs fresh lemon juice
1 tbs apple cider vinegar
Pinch salt and pepper
Pinch turmeric
In a frypan Sauté onion, garlic and chilli for a few minutes until onions are soft, add remaining ingredients and mix until combined well. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5-10 minutes. You can add some extra coconut milk or water to get it to the consistency you want it. I served my sauce over some grilled chicken and veggie stir fry. You could serve it over veggies or tofu or a different meat as well. Enjoy.
