INSTRUCTIONS

- 2 Meanwhile, for the Sauce, place 1 cup of the reserved satay mixture in small saucepan. Cook on medium heat 15 minutes or until sauce has thickened, stirring occasionally. Stir in 1 tablespoon of the cilantro. Set aside.
- 3 Remove chicken from marinade. Discard any remaining marinade. Thread 1 chicken tender onto each skewer.

TIPS AND TRICKS
Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes. This prevents them from burning on the grill.
To save time, thread chicken onto skewers. Place in 13x9-inch baking dish. Pour marinade over chicken; turn to coat well. Cover. Refrigerate and grill as directed.
