For the Peanut Dipping Sauce, you will need:

Instructions
Preparing the Chicken Satay:
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, coriander, cumin, turmeric, ginger, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Add the chicken strips to the bowl and toss until the chicken is fully coated in the spice mixture. Add the lemon juice and coconut milk and stir to combine. Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours.
Once the chicken has finished marinating, preheat the oven to 375°F. Thread the chicken strips onto the wooden skewers. Place the skewers on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the edges are lightly charred.
Making the Peanut Dipping Sauce:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, lime juice, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, Sriracha sauce, cilantro, and black pepper until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if desired.
