Indonesian Grilled Lamb Skewers (Satay Kambing)

Satay, grilled meat on skewers, originated centuries ago in Java. It is thought to be the descendant of the Indian kebab, with the most common meats used in a predominantly Muslim country being lamb, chicken, and goat. Served on skewers, they’re cooked with and dipped in a creamy peanut sauce. This satay dish makes for a great appetizer or snack.
