Chicken Satay is a popular street food in Southeast Asia including Singapore. The sweet and seasoned BBQ chicken meat is usually served with sweet peanut sauce and fresh cut cucumber. Taking a short cut to prepare the chicken satay filling, I used the frozen cooked meat in convenient packet. The filling was then wrapped in milk bun and topped with coriander flavoured desiccated coconut π
