Use Peanut Sauce

Peanut sauce is a common sauce used for dipping or for marinade. The recipe is very easy to make. Once you mix your sauce, you can use it for dipping bread, potatoes or vegetables. If you choose, you can use it to make a satay, which is a dish with meat using the peanut sauce as a marinade. You can use any meat of your choice--chicken, pork or beef--either grilling it or frying it.


Instructions


Use Peanut Sauce


1. Assemble your ingredients. Place at least 3 tablespoons of peanut butter in a bowl. Place bowl in microwave to soften the peanut butter, approximately 20 to 25 seconds on high.


2. In another bowl, mix other ingredients. These include 3 tbsp. soy sauce, 1/4 cup apple juice, hot sauce to taste and 3 tbsp. lime juice. Once the other ingredients are mixed and the peanut butter is softened, you can mix all ingredients together slowly.


3. This sauce can be used as a dipping sauce or a marinade. As a dipping sauce, you can use it for bread or potatoes or vegetables. The sauce can be served hot or cold.


4. If you choose to use this as a marinade, you can spread the sauce on the meat of your choice. It should be marinated for approximately an hour in the refrigerator. After the marinade, you can grill it or place it on a skewer.


5. Refrigerate any unused sauce. It can be used later as a dipping sauce. It can also be microwaved and served warm, if you desire.
