Directions
Step 1
In a bowl, mix galangal, tamarind, soy sauce, minced garlic, brown sugar, lime juice, chili flakes, and salt to create the marinade.
Step 2
Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and coat with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Step 3
Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat.
Step 4
Thread marinated chicken pieces onto the soaked skewers, leaving space between each piece for even cooking.
Step 5
Grill skewers for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with coconut milk until chicken is cooked through and slightly charred.
Step 6
Remove skewers from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving with extra lime wedges and fresh herbs if desired.
