Overview

Keto Satay Sauce is a low-carb take on the traditional Southeast Asian peanut sauce. Rich, creamy, and with a hint of spice, it pairs well with grilled meats, especially chicken.

Ingredients

• 1 cup unsweetened Peanut butter
• 1 cup full-fat Coconut milk
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp Soy sauce or tamari for gluten-free
• 1 tsp red chili flakes (adjust to taste)
• 1 tbsp Erythritol or other keto-friendly sweetener
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• Salt to taste

Preparation

• 1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the peanut butter and coconut milk. Stir until smooth and well-blended.
• 2. Add the minced garlic, soy sauce, erythritol, and chili flakes.
• 3. Continue to cook and stir for 5-7 minutes, ensuring the sauce does not stick to the pan.
• 4. Remove from heat and stir in lime juice. Adjust salt to taste.
• 5. Allow the sauce to cool. It will thicken slightly upon standing.

Serving Suggestions

• Use as a dipping sauce for grilled meats, especially chicken.
• Can be a dressing for salads or drizzled over stir-fried vegetables.
