Ingredients
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon sriracha or chili paste
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 tablespoons water (as needed)
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine peanut butter, coconut milk, soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, sriracha, garlic, and ginger.
- Whisk continuously until smooth and heated through, about 3-5 minutes. If sauce is too thick, add water a tablespoon at a time until desired consistency.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Tips
- For a smoother sauce, use natural peanut butter and stir well.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat gently before serving.
- Add more sriracha for extra heat or a splash of fish sauce for depth.
