Chicken Satay Skewers — Two Sisters Lao Thai
Grilled chicken satay with peanut sauce and cucumber relish — the shareable Lao-Thai starter we cannot keep on the pass. What it is, how we grill it, and how to order in Canberra.
Available at: Dickson · Woden
Chicken satay skewers are the dish that gets shared across every table — grilled to order, basted, and pulled off the grill with a glossy char.
What is satay?
Satay is meat (here, chicken) marinated, skewered and grilled over charcoal or high heat, served with a peanut sauce and a sharp cucumber relish. It is a street-food staple across Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and Laos — and a safe, crowd-pleasing entry point if you are new to the menu.
How we make it at Two Sisters
We marinate the chicken, grill it so the edges catch, and plate it with a rich peanut sauce and cool cucumber relish to cut the richness. It carries a contains-nuts tag because of the peanut sauce — let us know about allergies when you order.
